The compability issue does not solve it. Not is it a Y2K problem, as
it works on Win98.

So, any other suggestions?

To be more exact, my problem is ntdll.dll - after loading that the
error occurs. Next it loads msimtf.dll

Gee, I recall ntdll.dll - it can cause a lot of problems, and it is
probably related to user rights :)

Then he need to run his Windows Update
To fix it, for in 1999 thay put out a update to fix the Y2K
If he run all of the Windows Update, then Y2K is not the problem!

If it's ntdll.dll - it's 100% of problems!
Ok I'll do a Find: All Files on my Win98
Ntdll.dll << Find Now
I have Two
#One in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM Ntdll.dll 20KB
Version 4.10.1998
Description: Win32, NTDLL core component.

#Two in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\ Ntdll.dll 692KB
5.1.2600.2180(xp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158)
Description: NT Layer DLL

Have you run all of you Windows Updates?

For I have all my Windows Updates and can not get no more and you see from
the Updates that #Two is a xp_sp2!
