Hi,

This is from Old Timer

Hey ken545. That appears to be a valid version of kernel32.dll so there is something else amiss with that user's system but I don't know exactly what that might be. They are either missing some system component or some component has been compromised.

Cheers.

OT


Are you experiencing a lot of windows errors ?

I don't seem to be getting any windows errors. The only problems encountered so far are the missing/faulty file found on the sfc scan and the otl,otm etc programs not running
 
The only thing I can suggest if you feel you have problems is to contact the manufacturer of your system and purchase a windows CD or the recovery CD and do a System Repair, what this will do is just copy windows over the current version and in the process all the missing or corrupt files will be installed. If this is the way you want to go let me know and I can get you help on completing that task.

Thank you for all your help and advice. The computer was from tiny computers which crashed some time ago so i don't think there will be much help there but if you have some notes that you can pass on i will try to get a disc from another source.
thanks again for your help

Thank you for all your help. The computer is an old one and on reflection I should get a new one its just that i'm a bit mean and i also don't want to be bothered with windows 7. At least now you have helped me this far its stable and i can use it till i get one.
Thank you again
 
Since this issue appears to be resolved ... this Topic has been closed. Glad I could help.
