msvcr71.dll not found error

[Kyle]

Hi. I keep getting an error when I boot my laptop that
msvcr71.dll not found and to reload the application. Any
ideas how to fix this.

Thanks.

This could be tricky if its not booting up.
But if you have another computer you can find most .DLL's
just by Google searching their name. if you can get one
and put it on a floppy, you might be able to boot into
the recovery console and transfer the file from the
floppy to the folder its meant to be in. Im sorry I dont
know how to do this but I have found out how to do
similar things just by searching for keywords or
tutorials on XP command prompts.
Good luck

Hi, Kyle.

Does this Microsoft Knowledge Base article help?

I don't have MCE or a Tablet, so I hope someone else can help if that
article doesn't do the job.
