Problem with overwriting dll's

Hi:

Not sure which group to post this to.

Had a client pick up a used Dell laptop from a utility surplus outlet.
Drives were wiped so they took it to a shop to have OS installed. Shop
put on original Dell version of OS then applied updates.

I went to install app I wrote that uses open source ssl (libeay32.dll
& ssleay32.dll both version 0.9.8a 2006). During install I was prompted
to allow overwrite those same dll's (no version 2003) already on system.
This failed with access denied due to restriction or in use. I ran
Process Explorer and this indicated that both these dll's had been
loaded under svchost/1Xconfig.exe PID 652 identified as 8021XConfig
Module from Intel. Supposedly this executable is a background service
for the support of the Intel Wireless interface.

The question is how do I go about deleting those two dll's so my app
can install later versions? Do I go safe mode and not load some process
or what??

Thanks

Best regards
