My OS is windows 98.  you did a good job leading me down the Dos path.
Before I go that way can one of you tell me about System File Checker?

How to replace it from in DOS .....depends on what OS your using as in 98 /
ME or XP but to get to they all entail pressing F8 as the computer is
booting up , you can start pressing the F8 key as soon as you see the BIOS
doing its thing, as in detecting hard drives and your ram, you should then
be met with a few choices, pick the one that says DOS, when its booted up
you should be at a blck screen with something that looks like that C:>
..........at this prompt you can type:

Copy c:\windows\temp\msvcp60.dll c:\windows\system\

It should ask you if you want to overwrite one you already have.......say
yes. If the above command is wrong, can someone correct me :)

Another thought, if the msvcp60.dll is a windows system file and has some
how gotten screwed up, which has lead to you having to get a new one then
System File Checker tool in windows may be a better shot, I will let someone
else explain that one, as I dont use it very often, if at all.
