DLL files are the bane of my existence.

In Reply to: KERNEL32.dll problem with Gigasampler, Please Help! posted by Chris on May 31, 2002 at 23:03:46:

I haven't yet used Windows XP, but I would guess that Gigasampler
might be choking on it. Gigasampler came out while Windows98SE was
en vogue, so GIgasampler might run better on Windows98SE, maybe even
a patch-fixed Windows95. Still, Gigasampler requires lots of RAM, so
it could have to do with your RAM and disk cache and virtual memory
settings. Other than those, I would guess that maybe your System files
are a wee bit corrupted. Some Virus/Spyware Bots also have a nasty way
of implanting themselves in those uberimportant files such as KERNEL32.DLL
and RUNDLL.EXE At least XP has a really nice scandisk, I hear. Just make
sure that the ScanDisk.INI file is set up correctly. You can view it with
a plain text editor such as EDIT.COM or whatever. This could be important
because some errors can only be properly fixed by running ScanDisk in pure
DOS mode. However, in DOS mode, ScanDisk uses it's .INI file for directions.
Unless you manually edit this file, it's settings could very well be wrong.
This was an issue back with Windows98SE, so I'm guessing it still applies to
your system. Windows 2000 and ME and NT are oranges to these apples, but who
knows... were dealing with Micro$oft, the king of bugs and tedious functions.

p.s. = I can always know if a Micro$oft program has been installed on my mac,
because my system folder is suddenly flooded with shared library files, otherwise
knows as dynamically linked libraries (DLL's). Another tell-tale sign is a busload
of new system subfolders and strange additions to the Internet settings. Basically,
Microsoft IS A VIRUS. Look up the definition of a computer virus, and then think of
all those bug-prone, privacy-invading, system-crashing, system flooding, programs you've
been dealing with from the big software companies. I can guarantee you, these programs
are at least trojan horses or worms, if not full blown, socially-accepted computer viruses.

Old macs used to Run on 512K of RAM. Not much is really needed for a program on a computer.
Keep this in mind whenever you are downloading a big
new nasty commercial file. The best programs in life can fit on a 800K floppy diskette.
If you don't believe me, just look in you WINDOWS\COMMAND folder.
