Error starting program.
I have a Win. 98se machine that I installed a Math program for my kid on. The
install went fine but it will not open the software. Error that I get: Error starting program The COMCTL32.dll file cannot start. Check the file to determine the problem. I decided to uninstall the program but it will not let me. I try to open add/remove programs and I get the same error. I decided to reboot but I still get the same error. I did see that this .dll file is on the machine but how can I determine if it is bad or whatever. |
