Almost always a corrupted/wrong version of Msvcrt.dll. Currently I have (6) versions of this file from various sources. Each one insists on installing it's modified version, deleting the 'old'. (I've been 'taught' to back up .dll's, .sys, etc, files to an offline drive so that WHEN this crap happens, I can spend a few hours getting things back together..... Possibly your scanreg 'fix' "returned your registry to it's 'ORIGINAL' settings", like when you bought the computer. (Thanks, Bill for a program to do this......). A similar fix is sfc(SystemFileChecker)(Don'tUse It) The one i am using is Msvcrt.dll version 6.10.8637.0 7/30/02 (on a win98se machine) This is a Microsoft (R) Visual C++ Runtime Library It is located in the Win/system directory. You may find a copy on one of your original install disks or go to M$ website. -- Greg using Agent 1.93/32.576 Opera 7.50 3778 news.individual.net & news.gmane.org for sale: Apple//,Auto Parts/Equip/Manuals: http://[EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
