Guest :Brain: Thanks all, it worked! I seriously don't know what I'd do without you guys! Until next problem!

Honkers :tnx: I'll try that now.

dmacdonald95 http://www.computerhope.com/copyhlp.htm#03 should help. Here's some example syntax assuming Oleaut32.dll is on the Desktop and needs to be moved to Windows\System.

copy C:\Windows\Desktop\Oleaut32.dll C:\Windows\System

Honkers I figured it would work with DOS (the pc user's safe-haven). I'm just not quite sure how to use the copy command. Yeah, I've just mastered browsing around in DOS; I guess now is the time to learn how to actually use it. :[img]http://www.abandonia.com/forum/html/emoticons/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' />

Eagle of Fire Yes, boot in MS-Dos and you should be able to do whatever you want with the files. If you still cant, the answer lie with playing with attrib.exe commands.

Post back here if you need help with attrib.

Honkers Ok, that didn't work. I think the answer lies in booting DOS. I need some help with that since all I can do in DOS is browse around.

Honkers I tried that, but Win98 won't let me delete the dll. Way to go windows. I guess I'll try in Safe Mode, I dunno.

Nikson try to extract the file to your desktop, then manually remove the one in windows/system, then move the desktop one into the old one's place.

Honkers In other words, don't touch McAfee. Ok. I couldn't seem to extract that file to my windows\system directory. It said something like,"Can't recreate file that already exists" or something like that. Weird, eh?

Nikson Full format and reinstall!


Not really. Have a look here and here to understand your problem and get a working version of oleaut32.dll
Next time don't use repair software that you don't understand.
