how to update \systems32.dll

[davew]

I have XP Pro. I have problems playing some DVD's, CD's. I get a message I
need
to install a 'compatible decoder'. I found a decoder download (xp code pack
2.3.8) at codecs.com. however, I can't install it because I get this error
message,
"C:\windows\system32\pncrt.dll can't be updated please reboot your pc before
install to avoid this problem". I did that, but it didn't help. I searched MS
website for updates as best I could, but didn't find anything.
Does anyone know how to fix this ? ?
Much thanks in advance
