Hello:
I get this message on my Win XP when I boot up in windows.
No desktop icons appear. Any help is appreciated.

" This Application has failed to start because
OLEAUT32.dll was not found. Re-installing the application
may fix this problem."

but, it is there.

you can search and extract it from the win xp cd if you have it. if you
bought your comp from a shop then hard luck.


once you've extracted the .dll files they go here:

c:\windows\system32
c:\windows\servicepackfiles\i386

I can't get into windows to be able to replace the file.
I went in from another PC that is on the network and was
able to see the file. It is in there but I still couldn't
replace it.
It tells me that it is used by windows.
