Hi Donna As far as I am aware with W98se, the rundll32.exe file should be located in the C:\WINDOWS\ folder and not the C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM folder. Is the rundll.exe file in your C:\WINDOWS\ folder? It could have been removed by a Trojan (CWS), or it may be damaged and need to be replaced
Have you tried extracting a new copy of rundll32.exe to the C:\Windows folder, which is where it should be located? See this page for details on extracting single system files from the Win98 CD or cab files: http://rickrogers.org/sfc.htm#1pp Alternatively you could download a new copy for W98se here: http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/winfiles.html#rundll32 or here http://www.download.com/3120-20_4-0.html?qt=rundll32&tg=dl-2001&search.x=22&search.y=8 Alternatively, I could send you a copy of the rundll32.exe file from my W98se computer and you could copy it to your C:\WINDOWS\ folder ? Re your second question, installing XP over W98se should be quite easy if you have an XP cd. You will however need plenty of free space on your hard drive and sufficient ram. I upgraded a pc from ME to XP home, which only had 64mb ram so it was very slooooooow :-( You reallyl need at least 256mb ram to run XP successfully. BTW rhere seem to be rwo "D"'s asking questions here, are you the same D that wishes to delete IE or are you a different D lol! Toodle pip Rupert >>>>>>>>>> original message or part thereof <<<<<<<<<< I have a HP Pavillion running windows98se edition. Whenever I try to get into the settings it gives me this error message saying windows cannot find the rundll32 file. It needs a new modem now and I cannot install because of this error...Is there a way to correct this? Thanks, Donna ------------------------------------- I now have Win98 in my Hp computer and it has a rundll32 problem . My question is: If I install Win xp will that end the rundll32 problem I have now. And will the current windows recognize the new one or is there something I need to do to install the new Windows XP... One bear and no virus found in this outgoing message.
