Good afternnon everyone

I'm trying to run a game that I have just got 2 days ago. When I go to run it I get the following message:

This application has failed to start because binkw32.dll was not found. Re-installing the apllication may fix the problem.

I google it and downloaded the binkw32.dll file and installed it and then I got the message

binkw32.dll has not been properly installed

So I deleted it again
Please can I get a little help on this one?

Thanks so much

Try to register the file and see if that works:

"regsvr32 /i c:\path\binkw32.dll" (replace path with the file location)

If not, you could download and install Bink from the RAD game tools site directly. You should be able to play videos in the game, however it isn't the ideal solution:

Hi again.
I was trying to figure it out about how to do it. But I couldn't success. I don't really know how is to register the file. I'm not so experience in this. I though it was to be done by registering by using -Command Prompt- but i see that is not the way to do it.
How do I do the registering? and then replacing path?
Sorry about my ignorance
