Hi!
I uninstalled some applications a bit ago using
Add/Remove programs. Since then, when I try to start
various applications that I didn't uninstall (examples
include Adobe Acrobat and WinAmp), I get the error message:
"The WINMM.DLL file cannot start. Check the file to
determine the problem". I tried replacing the file
WinMM.dll with what should be a known good version of the
file, but I'm still getting the error. I suspect that some
useful file or registry entry this dll wants was deleted by
one of the uninstall programs, but I don't know what or
which. So, I suppose I need to know what WinMM.dll wants
in order to start, and where to get it. Any ideas how I
can fix this problem?
Thanks,
TRL
