Hi,

I am using windows xp. I tried to install a software to my computer which is for windows98. I solved the problem about gpib-vdd.dll. But now the sortware is not working because of the mfc42.dll file. (My opinion). I checked the mfc42.fll files on my computer I cleaned them. Now I have got only one and it is 6.2.4131.0. version.When I checked the computer which has got windows98 its mfc42.dll version is 6.0.8447 and the software is working without problem at this computer. Should find this version of mfc42.dll file and copy it to my computer or how can I solve this problem.

Thank yo for your help.

The problem is that you are installing a 16 bit program. It may not be compatible with XP. The mfc42.dll is a core file of windows that controls many major functions. You shouldn't change it back to an older version.
