DLL file missing?

[Squirty]

HI, I am not sure if I am at right place for this. Installed 98 and then when starting up computer, this is the message that I get every time, MSVCR70.DLL was not found. How can I fix that? Not sure where to look for to get it fixed. Thanks!

Get it here ,download it to your desktop,.It comes down as ZIP file you will need winzip or another zip program to unzip it to c:\windows\system folder .

oops forgot the details - windows 98 downloaded realplayer and didn't like it . when i uninstalled the real player, the regular cd player wouldn't work, kicked up the missing pncrt.dll message. tried to download the dll using the winzip program, but nothing happens. this shouldn't be this hard what am i doing wrong?

The zip file you download contains the DLL plus a readme file, you put the DLL in the system folder ,and do what you want with the readme file .

You don't use winzip to download it ,you use winzip to open the dowladed file and you then put the dll in you c:\windows\system folder .get the dll here ,2 click to get it .Click here to download pncrt.dll then when the next page opens , Download pncrt.dll ,then use winzip to unzip it ,direct winzip to the c:\windows\system ,Folder and hit unzip file http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?pncrt

well- i got the dll installed, the realpayer uninstalled, and now the windows cd player no longer pops up the missing pncrt.dll message, but teh cd player doesn't work. it doesn't seem to acknowledge the disc that has been inserted. teh "artist"line says no disc present initially, and then after inserting a disc, instead of a name teh line just is blank and no music plays. It did work [with this disc] before i got involved withthe real player. any recomendation for a good cd player i could download?

I just use windows media player 10 now but I used to use MusicMatch JukeBox.
For win98 I would get one of the older versions here .

Check c:\windows and if there is also a system32 folder put a copy of the file there also !

[Squirty]

HI again, I checked for system 32 and it was there and downloaded the file there and after rebooting the computer, I still get that same erroe message.

[caperjack]

Hi,
I had a problem before with a dll file and went to windows and put the name of the dll file in search and found it and installed it directly to the folder it was needed in.
