Hello and thanks for your time,
I am trying to setup Win XP in my old Gateway Win 98 , after 1 hour of
setup I get this windows :
Winlogon.exe can not find the component . Error when start aplication
becouse can not find ODBC32.dll.
and then this one:
Error of interfaz of user. Error when load DLL msgina.dll
I tryed to reinstall it but did not work either,
I purchased the program in another country , is in spanish , so if i
have to retrun it it take long time for me.
My real email is (e-mail address removed)
Thanks again,
George.
 
For .dll errors or problems thiers only one place to go,technet at
microsoft.com.Go to search,type:dll error
You should get directed to the on-line utility for chking those problems
and where its associated in the os.
Usually,for windows xp problems,open cmd prompt,type:Sfc /Scannow
Takes care of 95% of system problems,youll need the xp cd to run.

Hello Jorge,
I think what you are saying (correct me if I'm wrong)....you are trying to upgrade a Win98 machine to Windows XP, and you purchased it from "another country". Seems like your XP install did NOT complete. Right, or wrong?

2 or 3 issues here. You needed to check & be sure your old computer meets minimum install requirements, plus, all the hardware is compatible with XP. Some older hardware pieces may not work in XP.

You should have made a list of all your "startup programs" before XP setup, plus, made sure they were *disabled* during XP setup.
That is mandatory.

Also, make sure your XP CD is legitimate. It should have had a "Certificate of Authenticity" with it.
