OLEAUT32.DLL updated, now Kernel32.dll error

[subhavs]

Hey ...

I have a Win95 machine (4.00.950) with 64MB Ram. It has Oracle Client 8.0.3.

I recently tried to run a VB application on this machine and it gave me an error saying that OLEAUT32.DLL was out of date. So, I visited the Microsoft Website and downloaded the latest OLEAUT32.DLL.

Now I am getting the following error (whenever I try to run MSWord, Explorer etc ...) :
"A device attached to the system is not functioning.

The RPCRT4.DLL file is linked to missing export KERNEL32.DLL : InterLockedCompareExchange"

What should I do ? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I am just a programmer, I have no idea about installations or operating systems. So, please forgive me for requesting your answer to be clearly spelled out.

Thanks,

- Subha

When the kernell comes to town its no fun. Normally I say reinstall the OS however I notices your version of win95 is like the very first addition.
Go to MS and download service pack:

Try this first

Thanks gpwolf ...

I just found that the Win95 version is actually 4.00.950B. Sorry ... Does this mean that the machine has the service pack ?

If so, how should I proceed now ?

Thanks,
