System\currentcontrolset\control\virtualdevicedriv ers. VDD . Virtual Device Driver format in the registry is invalid. choose close to terminate the application. Then it gives the Close or Ignore. Can anyone help on this. I understand it has to do with symantec which we no longer use. thanks. fran |

S32EVNT1.DLL
fran asked :-
Windows 2000 - is that the same as ME? No - Nothing like. Two completely different operating systems. ..... S32EVNT1.DLL error ... Can anyone help on this. I understand it has to do with Symantec which we no longer use. Try uninstalling your Symantec software (as you no longer use it) and see if the error report goes with it. But you don't state which OS you're using anyway - 2000 of WinMe so don't know if this might help - although it does refer to XP Error: "S32evnt1.dll. An installable Virtual Device Driver failed DLL initialization" http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT...8?OpenDocument nor do you tell us what/who told you to delete S32EVNT1.DLL, nor why. You *might* need to re-install your Symantec software and then immediately uninstall it for a completely successful clear-out. Mart "FGM" wrote in message ... Windows 2000 - is that the same as ME?

S32EVNT1.DLL
Even after uninstall, older Symantec software is notorious for leaving huge
quantities of stuff lying around the system! ASSuming that the software in question is NAV or related stuff, then use the Norton Removal Tool after first using the uninstaller - this should get rid of most of the remains. NOTE that it automatically removes ALL Norton programs - so use with caution! http://service1.symantec.com/Support...05033108162039 -- Noel Paton CrashFixPC Nil Carborundum Illegitemi www.crashfixpc.co.uk "Mart" wrote in message ... fran asked :- Windows 2000 - is that the same as ME?

S32EVNT1.DLL
This is a Symantec dll. It installs from "System Works" in both Symantec
program files and unfortunately in Windows System. You might need to reinstall System Works, then use the Norton uninstaller. Do not use "add, delete" in the control panel. Might be of further help if you can describe the DOS problem you're having. Symantec has some excellent stuff for large business users. Unfortunately their consumer software was NG until 2008. Too late for old OSs. -- I mastered Wordstar graphics! "FGM" wrote: Windows 2000 - is that the same as ME? Any way having trouble using DOS programs get S32EVNT1.DLL error.

I understand it has to do with symantec which we no longer use. There are ways to retrieve the deleted 'dll', which I think ought to be done first and then take things from there, as Noel suggested. The error obviously points at the missing dll. But: no warranties expressed here. Harry. thanks. fran |
