I'm asking this question for my son, since he cannot get his computer to
load since installing the SP-2 update. Everything went well, so he thought,
until he turned on his computer this morning. He received the message "load
needed for DLL for Kernel.

Help would greatly be appreciated on how to solve this problem

Thank you,
Brian's Mom
