"Run a DLL as an APP" error message on startup

Expand Post »
I have ATI's HDTV WONDER, and since installing it, an error message comes up everytime the computer is rebooted saying that "Run a DLL as an APP has encountered a problem and needs to close". Remote Wonder, a feature that came with this, also has stopped working. I have uninstalled/reinstalled the software and drivers, updated drivers, ran countless spware/adware removal programs, searched EVERYWHERE on the internet, and contacted ATI's customer service, and nothing has helped. If anyone knows anything about this please help. Thanks.

Re: "Run a DLL as an APP" error message on startup

I went through this forever. At one point I had 63 uncleanable viruses on my computer according to trendmicro.com free scan. I deleted, repaired, ect...many many times. My advice to you is erase your hard drive and reinstall from scratch. Install ZoneAlarm and an anti-virus program as soon as you reinstall your OS. I'm not a computer genius, but I had a lot of advice from the real techies and I found this was the only was to kill the viruses forever. Good luck!

The "Run a DLL as an APP" error can have many causes. For starters, can you please tell us exactly which version of Windows you are running?

Re: "Run a DLL as an APP" error message on startup

Windows XP professional. I uninstalled all ATI software and drivers, and the message went away. I then reinstalled the drivers and software for my ATI radeon 9800 pro, and things were still fine. I then reinstalled the software and drivers for the ATI HDTV WONDER PCI card and the "Run a DLL as an APP" message occurred again. All software works except for the REMOTE WONDER program. very frustrating.
