question setupx.dll

[Rocky T Squirrel]

Howdy,
puter reports that my setupx.dll is not right, so I did the replacement
thing from a new copy of the same dll file..

however after a couple of sessions on the web the puter says again that
the same file setupx.dll is not right again..

Now I've scanned the puter with everything I got and then some and it
says there isn't any virus or malware to be found.. (avast, adaware,
housecall, etc..)

did a full disk scan for possible bad sectors non found.. (80geg took
6.5 hours)

So, I'm open for suggestions as to what the problem might be..

as a side note, every time i try to access the microsoft update site i get
a crash notice of mshtml.dll has closed iexplorer. doesn't do it on any
other website only microsoft..

tks

See if this will give you some relief, you may have to 'reinvent' your
'setupx.dll' file:

Rocky,
it might not apply to you, depending on whether you have ME or not.
If you do, it doesn't, which I realized after taking a second look.
Sorry about that. <H>.

tks for the effort webster72n
their's something really messed up here somewhere..
I'm now getting errors and failures from an assortment of files,
mmtask, mmsystem, mshtml, msgsrv32, as well as setupx.

What I've done so far is replace each of those files one at a time from a
virgin copy of ME
and each time the troubled puter seems to work right the first reboot but
then starts rejecting
the same files after a few minutes..

I can't get into safe mode at all now..

everything has to be done with the boot disk..

the puter will NOT restore to an earlier date, restore message is that
restore was unsucessful each time.

tks for the effort..

I assume you mean scanreg /restore?

If so, then try a scandisk c: using your floppy boot disk. You need to
eliminate a possible failing HDD. DO NOT do a Surface Scan until/unless
you've backed-up your essential (personal) data. Make a note of any/all
error reports before considering or proceeding with a Surface Scan. Good
luck.

tks mart

about restore
tried using the windows portal with no luck (had several months of points)
then tried using the start floppy (only had 5 points but none would work)

FYI
I've given up trying to figure it out..
I've reinstalled ME on another drive and currently setting it up with the
basics
will try copy and paste from the bad drive to the newer one and see if the
problem follows over..
That will let me know if its an unknown virus or what..

from all test so farthe old hard drive is not failing, no bad sectors or
lost data reported..

Tks again.

I strongly suspect it to be some kind of an "unwanted intruder".
Did you really try all "avenues"?
Hopefully it didn't "take over" your entire system!
Second the motion for "Good Luck". <H>.

tks webster72n
its a mute problem now, i've gone 75 percent over to a new install..
the new setup has cleared out a lot of oddities from the old drive..
(the old drive had been in operation for well over 5 years without a
reload..)

I now have smooth sound drive output on startup also time to start is
about 1/3 the old one..
Just getting all the old data and even older programs back on the puter
takes some time..
once i get the new drive fully up to speed, i'll do a manual sweep of the
old drive deleting everything
with dll, exe, com, and any other operating sufix...

I did find however that the old image handler program i had been using
for 7 years would not pass an email virus scan..
( firehand.com MAX) Avast kept saying it was a questionable virus
type program..
kinda odd that, cause it had been working normally as best as i could
notice..

Since Firehand has gone out of business it could be the reason... LOL

tks again.

Sometimes selfhelp is the only solution left, as I know from experience.

[O.J. Newman]

Hello:

I had a similar problem with Win XP Home SP2, where I could not restore to a
previously created and existing restore point. The error message was generic
and the MS KB didn't help. But I found a shareware utility called
"WinRescueXP" that was able to read and restore the Win XP created restore
point that Win XP itself refused to restore. I was able to do this well
within the free trial period. There is also a WinRescueME for Win ME that
you might try if you ever have this problem again. See:
http://regvac.com/rescuexp.htm .

Cheers,
O.J.
