Subject: Re: Re[2]: Help please

When my wifes puter gave that error,it came up when booting,not allowing
the puter to boot anything but a black screen that had that "shell32dll
missing " at the top.

The only way to get any further was to use the 7 disks we got from HP.

  Hi Melody,

  What a cute name!

  If all that is wrong is that you have a missing
  "shell32.dll", then I can't see why you can't copy
  that from another computer and register it.

  I am unsure if the XP Home file is the same as the XP
  Pro file, but if you want to give it a go I can send
  you a copy of mine (XP PRO SP2) and all you woul need
  to do is place it in C:\Windows\system32 and register
  it.

  To register it you go:

  START > RUN > and type REGSVR32 shell32.dll and hit
  OK.

  Make sue you put a space between "REGSVR32" and
  "shell32.dll" or it will not work!

  That is all there is to it.  The system will
  immediately acknowledge if the registration has/has
  not been successful.

  My copy is approx 8.25 Mb, so it is not small.

  I am unclear just how far your system is booting up,
  bu I can't see why you can't load the new file and
  register it from the Command Prompt.

  Any one chip in here if that is not possible?

  Cheers,

  John Lehn (Sydney Australia)

Hi Melody,

Read further (your problem) and it appears that you
can't get to a command prompt.

You should be able to do that using a Windows 98 Boot
Disk, or if you can't get one fom a friend who is
using Win98, get a boot disk from:

http://www.tweakdoctor.com/bootdisks/

BTW, there are many other sites that provide these
boot disks.

Then you can copy the missing file (I can send one to
you) and register it as per pevious advice, from the
command prompt.  I am however still unsure if the XP
Pro SP2 file is the same as the one for XP Home SP2.

Does anyone know??

I agree, but you HAVE to boot from the XP CD and use chkdsk /r from the
recovery console.

It will take a couple of hours, go above 50% then jump back to 50% a couple
times - that's normal.

If it doesn't boot normally after running chkdsk /r, then do the XP repair -
Go past the recovery console like you are doing an install, but choose "R"
at the next opportunity.  You might think you are wiping your stuff out, but
you won't!

Good luck,

Mark

The files are not missing, she has minor logical filesystem corruption,
preventing the file system from finding the system files required. A chkdsk
will fix it.

Thankyou all for your help but none of it worked....I knew enough not to
reformat because I can't lose all my data and hope I havn't already...I
tried rebooting...I tried the CD in it rebooting, I tried safe mode, I
tried every mode there is on that 1 page I can get...I tried holding down C
as it started up and it went streigth to black page with pop up shell32.dll
was not found...I get that with everythign I try...I can't put in links
when I can't get into my computer front page...there is no place to put a
link on the safe mode page, which is black background also...no place for
me to type anything...so that is why I said I can't get to any store for
this...I guess the only thing I can do is take it to our computer Dr. local
here who charges and arm and a leg..was hoping to save money since I really
don't have it...but I can't wait too long or I'll get behind on my college
courses online...sigh...Thanks anyways for all your advice and
help...Sincerely, Melody

format you do not not need to format, this
will wipe the data you need.

You need to enable your computer to boot from CD. Jim provided some good
advice on this. Another option is that on some laptops if you hold down the
"C" button during bootup it will start from CD.

option 1:
boot into safemode with command prompt. run "chkdsk c: /f"  (without
quotes). when that has finished press ctl-alt-del, task manager will pop up,
choose shutdown -> restart.

option 2:
I provided a link to a web site (i did not mean drive to the shops, that is
what the link is for)
( try http://www.serverninjas.com/ubcd4winfiles/UBCD4WinV26.exe )
in my earlier post that enables you to download a file which you can burn to
CD, you can then boot from that CD to rescue your system. This CD contains a
windows setup that runs totally off CD, if you manage to boot it up, go to
the menu and choose command prompt. Then in the prompt type "chkdsk c: /f"
without the quotes. this will fix your problem, i have done this many times,
with exactly your problem.

option 3:
if you have a windows xp install disk (not a Dell recover disk, which usally
just wipe your system and restore a disk image), boot from it, press R to
enter the recovery console, then type "chkdsk c: /p" (note this is different
to the above command).

option 4:
just wipe the thing and reinstall, or take it to your local tech if you want
your data. but trust me you do not need to wipe it to make it work, or
recover your files.

Howard,

> Actually ,we never had an origonal disk.

These days computers don't come with rescue disks, instead they have a
special partition, often hidden, to recover after problems. Trouble with
this is that if your 'puter gets really clobbered you may not have access
to
the rescur process. Some computers run a message at startup reminding you
to
create the rescue disks if the machine as a CD or DVD burner. one should
always do this as soon as possible, then save the disk(s) in a safe place.

Yes, sometimes the option to restore only to the C drive is either not
available or not well explained. If the option message says something like
'format the hard drive' that may mean just that. SO ALWAYS KEEP YOUR DATA
BACKED UP. Like Estavi I have other data partitions. And I long ago started
trying the rescue disk/partition option so I would know how it worked, what
it actually did. Now I can usually do it without clobbering my data
partition. Even if I do, I have my data also backed up on an external hard
drive.  AND on data DVDs and three other machines. :-) Talk about belt and
suspenders. :-)

Yes, that's a good idea for anyone who hopes to do his own mainenance
and/or
repairs. I have to be dragged kicking and screaming to a repair person
since
I doubt that many know what they are doing beyond the things that I can do
myself. And some probably should rate only slighly below used car salesmen
on the Don't Trust These Gusy scale. :-)

Unfortunately I'd guess that the mother board has more to do with whether a
computer will spontaneously reboot/shutdown if the supply voltage dips.

I assume you mean using the XP disk. That IS an option, I have not found

Howard,

But you had better be certain that you know which stick you need. Best Buy
guys are not known for knowing anything. :-) Not their fault, they do their
best. I would try Crucial.com first, you can state the computer make and
model and get the memory stick requirements. Maybe you could then compare
prices.

That is an excellent idea, and if one can't afford one use the burner and
CDR/W disk so that you can just update them from time to time.

As for the rescue disks wiping out the whole drive, I think this varies
with
the company and with the options offered. Somtimes that language is
confusing.

I would recommend to those who buy a new computer  before installing any
new
applications find out how your rescue process works. You can often start
the
process just to see the language used, then cancel before doing it. Write
down the wording on each option. Maybe the system help file will give you a
clue. Most companies add their own information to the one supplied by MS.
And the computers on line manual, you don't often get a printed one that is
worth the bother.

If you have the nerve, try the rescue process yourself. Then you will know
how it works. then no panic if things 'go South'.

Melody,

You really need to get it to boot from the CD - then you can fix it
yourself.

Please describe the model number of your Dell and describe the XP CD you are
trying to boot from.

Thankyou all for your help but none of it worked....I knew enough not to
reformat because I can't lose all my data and hope I havn't already...I
tried rebooting...I tried the CD in it rebooting, I tried safe mode, I tried
every mode there is on that 1 page I can get...I tried holding down C as it
started up and it went streigth to black page with pop up shell32.dll was
not found...I get that with everythign I try...I can't put in links when I
can't get into my computer front page...there is no place to put a link on
the safe mode page, which is black background also...no place for me to type
anything...so that is why I said I can't get to any store for this...I guess
the only thing I can do is take it to our computer Dr. local here who
charges and arm and a leg..was hoping to save money since I really don't
have it...but I can't wait too long or I'll get behind on my college courses
online...sigh...Thanks anyways for all your advice and help...Sincerely,

format you do not not need to format, this
will wipe the data you need.

You need to enable your computer to boot from CD. Jim provided some good
advice on this. Another option is that on some laptops if you hold down the
"C" button during bootup it will start from CD.

option 1:
boot into safemode with command prompt. run "chkdsk c: /f"  (without
quotes). when that has finished press ctl-alt-del, task manager will pop up,
choose shutdown -> restart.

option 2:
I provided a link to a web site (i did not mean drive to the shops, that is
what the link is for)
( try http://www.serverninjas.com/ubcd4winfiles/UBCD4WinV26.exe )
in my earlier post that enables you to download a file which you can burn to
CD, you can then boot from that CD to rescue your system. This CD contains a
windows setup that runs totally off CD, if you manage to boot it up, go to
the menu and choose command prompt. Then in the prompt type "chkdsk c: /f"
without the quotes. this will fix your problem, i have done this many times,
with exactly your problem.

option 3:
if you have a windows xp install disk (not a Dell recover disk, which usally
just wipe your system and restore a disk image), boot from it, press R to
enter the recovery console, then type "chkdsk c: /p" (note this is different
to the above command).

option 4:
just wipe the thing and reinstall, or take it to your local tech if you want
your data. but trust me you do not need to wipe it to make it work, or
recover your files.

Read further (your problem) and it appears that you
can't get to a command prompt.

You should be able to do that using a Windows 98 Boot
Disk, or if you can't get one fom a friend who is
using Win98, get a boot disk from:

http://www.tweakdoctor.com/bootdisks/

BTW, there are many other sites that provide these
boot disks.

Then you can copy the missing file (I can send one to
you) and register it as per pevious advice, from the
command prompt.  I am however still unsure if the XP
Pro SP2 file is the same as the one for XP Home SP2.

Does anyone know??

What a cute name!

If all that is wrong is that you have a missing
"shell32.dll", then I can't see why you can't copy
that from another computer and register it.

I am unsure if the XP Home file is the same as the XP
Pro file, but if you want to give it a go I can send
you a copy of mine (XP PRO SP2) and all you woul need
to do is place it in C:\Windows\system32 and register
it.

To register it you go:

START > RUN > and type REGSVR32 shell32.dll and hit
OK.

Make sue you put a space between "REGSVR32" and
"shell32.dll" or it will not work!

That is all there is to it.  The system will
immediately acknowledge if the registration has/has
not been successful.

My copy is approx 8.25 Mb, so it is not small.

I am unclear just how far your system is booting up,
bu I can't see why you can't load the new file and
register it from the Command Prompt.

Any one chip in here if that is not possible?

Cheers,

Subject: Re: Help please

There are 2 kinds of CD's that come with systems; restore CD's and
installation CD's.  The restore CD's are made by the manufacturer and
usually contain a compressed disk image, which the restore program will
uncompress and write back to the harddrive, bringing the system back to
a 'new' condition.  This will usually overwrite or wipe out any data on
the harddrive at the time.  I take it that this is NOT what you want to
do, as you have data (schoolwork) on the harddrive that you want to save.

If this is the case, what you'll need to try is a repair of the
operating system. For this, you'll need an installation CD.  These are
made by Microsoft and are either OEM or retail.  I would try to borrow
one from a friend.  Any Windows CD will work if it is the correct
version and service pack.

You will need to know what your operating system version is: Windows XP
Home, Windows XP Pro, Windows 2000, Windows 98SE, etc.  You will also
need to know what service pack was installed. This will be SP1 or SP2
for Windows XP and up thru SP4 for Windows 2000.

Once you have an installation CD that matches your OS and service pack,
you'll need to set the laptop to boot from the CD before the harddrive.
  From the posts so far, that doesn't seem to be the case.  You'll need
to get into the BIOS (same as entering Setup) to change the boot order.
  If you post the make and model of your laptop, we may be able to help
with that.

Once you can boot from the CD, you'll proceed just as if you were going
to install the OS.  You'll come to a screen that asks if you want to
install Windows XP (I'm assuming you have Windows XP).  Say YES to this
option.  The install routine will now look for a previous install of
Windows XP and ask if you want to repair that installation or install a
new one.  Choose to repair the existing installation.  Have your Product
Key available.  It should be on a sticker on the side of the machine; 5
groups of 5 characters.  Let the install routine proceed.  The system
will eventually reboot.  When it does, DO NOT hit a key to enable
booting from the CD. Just let windows boot normally and you should be
back in business.  You will need to go online and get whatever patches
and updates were issued since the service pack but that should be no big
deal.

HI..Thanks so much...best advice...I guess It would be best to go to local
shop...they should have the boot CD and can repair it...there are two here
so I'll see who has best price after I explain to them what is going on and
what possibly needs to be done...I would never take advantage of my friends
and offer money or dinner...smiles...but no friends with CD to help...so
shop it is...and yes, I learned not to do anything on my battery...it
usually lasts at least a half hour...I understand most last 3-4 hours...but
I got a cheap one so that's what I get...grins...I usually don't do
anything on it on battery unless it's playing computer games and then it
shuts off...but from now on AC power is best and I'll try to get a good new
battery for it...Thanks for the help...I truly appreciate this group adn
all the help I received...Hugs to all, Melody

  Melody,
I suggest that you take it to your local computer shop.  It is
possible, if you really have an OS CDROM and not a "Restore
CD",  that the shop can boot the CD, go into a "repair mode" and
resolve the problem.

If you have a friend who is a super computer repair guru, you can
call him or her.  You should expect that they do this as a side
business, not as "free for friends" work.

The process is not straight forward and there are a lot of variations
(if this, I need to do that...) that are only learned from experience
and actually having hands on the malfunctioning machine.

Regarding battery use -- you learned (I hope) never to do critical
system things on battery power.  Once your laptop is up and running,
see what happens when you have it plugged in and then unplug the
power -- does the battery keep the computer running without an
automatic reboot?  I've seen notebooks that could run on battery or
on AC but the battery wouldn't keep the unit up if the AC went off.

For desktop users, any kind of defrag, restore, etc -- be sure you
use a UPS -- or you can be in the same situation.

Recheck your account settings, maybe it did not stick.
