That dll is from your NVidia video adapter

"Uninstall the current updated NVIDIA drivers, then re-install them in safe mode. The computer should recognize it at start-up all by itself."

The above is from the last posting (3/4/2003) at the below link:

If it does not help, there are other options there to try. You may have to follow the link for awile until a "known" solution" is found.

Okay... but which OS are you using?

Go to Control Panel --> Display --> Settings --> Advanced --> Adapter --> Properties --> Driver --> Uninstall --> follow the prompts.

Your video should go back to a standard driver, then OK out and reboot.

Boot back into safe mode and control panel --> display --> settings --> advanced --> adapter --> properties --> driver --> Update driver. Have the cd ready to point the install to.
