DLL file search


Recommended Posts

My husband has messed up his (old) computer. He's on W98

Long story - I'll tell it if you like.

But the upshot is that he is missing STLPORT_VC6.DLL

I used to have a good site for DLL files - so confident with XP that I scrubbed it.

Any ideas anybody? :huh:

Got a new error message - Page fault in kernel32.dll at 015f:bff87eb5

Found it on MS site. It said the resolution is to uninstall the ImageStream 97 graphics filters.

Can I do this? or is it a bit of the insides?

I reinstalled the office suite over the (minimum) installation that hubby had done and it did come up on the list but when I tried to uninstall it - that's when the m/s error message popped up to say there had been an illegal op etc. and it closed down.

The said office suite , which seems to have started the whole thing off, has got all the components installed and seems ok.

I can't help thinking it could be to do with an old version of m/s VM for ie 4.0 which hubby also put in - not sure why he did that. He also tried to install Word 97. I uninstalled both of those, did a search for any remnants, ran a scan and defragmented. No problems there.

I'm about ready to give up. Where are the graphics filters?

I'll look and try all after lunch.

Will put in IE6 have got virgin disc.

He uses the comp for games, mostly, including CFS3 - which needed all sorts of updates etc for the graphics, so I understand. I know nothing about those things.

Thanks for taking the trouble - although after yesterdays remarks, I think I'm owed. :rolleyes: :)

Ok - I will search for ImageStream. His comp is upstairs and it's only connected to the internet sometimes.

Will definately update his IE - wanted to before but he wouldn't let me.

That 1st site seemed to be about W95 ??

MS- I did find it on there - article 235676.

I put ImageStream uninstall in Google - lots of results - will have a bit of a browse there too.

What fun it all is.

:(

I think I'm going to have to concede defeat on this.

I did manage to install IE 6 - but with problems. When it came to 'updating the files' It stopped - got fatal exception and closed. I got it started and to my surprise the update completed. BUT - cant get on to any sites. It keeps going back to the home page. Bad download?

There's error messages all over the place. And lots of MS report windows.

I found a lot of files to do with ImageStream97 - looked at a couple, lost the search screen, went back to search - nothing showed up that time.

I think it's beyond me. Will phone chappie tomorrow.

Thanks for trying though.
