i just had the same problem, and i found the solution.
u have to download and run this executable
http://download.microsoft.com/download/msninvestor/Patch/1.0/WIN98/EN-US/mcrepair.EXE
for more info on this problem ge here:
http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=3c1ce59d%241%40news.installshield.com ; "
I found this tonite after searching around for abit.
If your not sure what Its for hit ctrl-F right now.Did you get and error?
then DL this and run it saying yes to all 4 or 5 files being overwiten.
Make sure to go to that second link too and read what M$ did to screw us 98 users.I knew it was only a matter of time till they started this sort of crap.
ah, hell just read it here lol
"There's currently an epidemic of this problem. It's a really new problem,
because Microsoft in their wisdom, made a version of the OLEAUT32.DLL (et.
al), version 3.50, that is incompatible with Windows 98. IMHO this was a
big mistake by Microsoft and the worst form of DLL HELL. It comes with the
version that ships with Windows XP.
Someone has made an install that includes this new DLL, thereby destroying
your system. Here is a fix
Download:
download.microsoft.com/download/msninvestor/Patch/1.0/WIN98/EN-US/mcrepair.E
XE
Then run it, and when it prompts you to overwrite newer files, make sure you
click YES for each file (not "No" or "No to all")
This will replace all of the 3.50 DLLs from XP with older versions
compatible with Windows 98 (2.40.4515)
NOTE TO ALL INSTALL DEVELOPERS: DO NOT INCLUDE THE WINDOWS XP VERSION OF
OLEAUT32.DLL, OLEPRO32.DLL, ASYCFILT.DLL and STDOLE2.TLB in your setup. It
is causing great pain everywhere.
Ted."
I hope I helped save some of you the total frustration Iv'e been having with this problem.
