.dll files missing.

[David Morris]

Hello, and thank you in advance for reading my post.
After using a few installers for some private Ragnarok
Online servers, I found out that one had manage to
delete/corrupt some .dll files required the use the very
setup files that I had been running; other setup files
seemed to not use these .dll files and were unaffected.
The error message stated that mss32.dll was missing, and
the setup could not exicute. So, I went onto the
internet, googled the .dll file, and downloaded one, then
threw it into my system folder. Now, it says: "The
procedure entry point _AIL_close_digital_driver@4 could
not be located in the dynamic link library mss32.dll." .
Obviously, the dll file that I had downloaded off the
ineter wasn't the correct version. Now the quest I have
is how to restore this; it seems to be direct-x related,
but, as far as I know, direct-x doesn't like to be re-
installed, so I'm at a loss, and pretty frustrated. Also,
system restore isn't an option, because it generally has
had a bad reputation witht he people I've talked to, and
I've had it turned off (Until now, anyways).
Thanks again for your time,
David Morris

I have reinstalled DirectX in the past and have had no problems at all. Have
you tried an "undelete" program for the deleted ones - won't help with the
corrupt, though? Since the corrupt files are still on the system, right
click, properties, find the date and version and try your search that way.
As far as SysRestore goes, I have had no problems with it at all. There are
times that it will not restore to the point that I want, but if you haven't
turned off restore recently, you should be able to find a restore point that
works. When I make changes/add programs, etc. I do not rely on the program
creating a restore point. I make one of my own before installing or making
changes.

Well, the undelting software I've found couldn't find
any .dll files that were deleted, so that didn't help.
Also, directx doesn't like to be re-installed; the
installers that I've found doesn't support it. Perhaps
when a new version of Direct X comes out the DLL files
will be re-installed.

That's not a Windows XP file or from directX 9c AFAIK.
