Strange error with Kernel32.dll

sonofacpu · Oct 19, 2002, 09:19 PM

I have a friend that has a strange problem with that DLL. When he tried to run Imesh, he had exactly this error message "Could not load the DLL library C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\kernel32.dll. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.". He had this error before with a game patch for Unreal. I don`t have any clue for this. Don`t you knwo anything? He is using Windows 98 SE. Its a pentium 3 750mhz, 128mb ram, with a ge-force 256.

Thank you beforehand,

It has to do with InstallShield not working properly.

Sorry, but it is not iKernel, its the main Windows DLL, Kernel32.dll. I have tried installing Windows again, but it didnt work, so I think it may be that kernel32 is corrupted, but I have my doubts because the reinstalation of Windows didnt help. This is really very strange. Anyone had had this error before?
