It may have nothing to do with it, but it could be damaged dotnet.
Last week I had a situation where suddenly the BDS IDE stopped
compiling, but command line compile still worked. It turned out be
corrupted dotnet2 files. Reinstalling it did not fix it. However,
uninstalling and installing again did. I only found it by comparing
every windows exe with another pc. :-)

I am (still) working with D6 on a program that provides a COM/OLE
services on windows clients, windows networks. The program allows VB
code in MS Word and other programs to call these com services in my D6
executable. Typically the services get data from a Firebird DB and
pass it to the requestors.
The program can register its COM interfaces when it first runs or by
running it with the /regserver command line option.
It registers OK in all MS operating systems win9x, win2000, XP, win
2003, win 2003 SP1, (but not Win 2003 SP2) and Vista (once we use the
"real admin" logon account). I have verified its registration works on
each OS mentioned in actual sites and in my test setup. I have
verified the registration is only partial in Win 2003 SP2. The com
interfaces appear in the registry and they are removed when I run the
program with command line /unregserver. Using TREGSRV does not help.
I repeat that Win 2003 SP1 and below is OK and Win 2003 SP2 gives me
this problem.
The dot (myfile.dot) file used when users are running MS Word as part
of the application, when on Win 2003 SP2, is failing to compile. The
VB Editor tissues the error "Compile error \n Error in Loading DLL"
and points to an object referencing a servive provided by my program.
When other programs ask for com services they are not provided. Yet
when I edit this code in the VB Editor the code completion feature
knows about my type library and presents options from my type library.
So my type library seems to have been registered OK.
This appears to be a Win 2003 SP2 bug. But, as the program is a Delphi
6 product I am hoping someone here has some insights for me. We need
the program running on Win 2003 where it is used as a terminal server.
Insights will be welcome.
Thanks,
Russell Belding
