Well, here's more crap from the great pontificator, but the correct answer is
"A".
"Setup" is a noun, like "television" or "airplane," and if you substituted
either of those nouns into the sentence, they would make the incorrectness
obvious.
"Set up", on the other hand, is a verb followed by a preposition and is a
phrase now so common in English that it rates its own dictionary entry as a
transitive verb.
