dll. file not there

The DLL file is no longer at it's registered location.

The easiest way for you to correct this, is to place your Windows CD into the CD drive, and run System File Checker (SFC) from the run box on the start menu.

SFC will check your system forcorrupt or missing windows files, and prompt you to replace them.

If the DLL is not a Windows system file, you may need to re-install the application that requires the file.

As a last ditch alternative, you can use one of the DLL archive sites, and download the latest version of the missing DLL.

Chas

if it isn't a system file how do I find what file the missing dll file is missing from?

Point value changed by question poster.

If you are wanting to know what application it might be from try this link; http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=/servicedesks/fileversion/dllinfo.asp&SD=MSDN&FR=0. Hope it helps. Also you might want to go to the START, RUN, type in MSCONFIG and hit enter. Go to the STARTUP tab and see what is loading at start up.
