How to Replace the Kernel32.Dll File
- 1). Obtain a Windows installation CD that is the same exact type as your current system; for example, Windows 98, ME, 2000, XP, etc. Place it into your disc drive. If your system is corrupted, you will have to manually install the program.
- 2). Type "FORMAT C:" and hit "Enter." This will turn your PC back to its factory settings, thereby erasing all of your data, software, and upgrades.
- 3). Press "Y" when asked if you want to install the program. Wait for the program to install.
- 4). Type "D:" and hit "Enter." This tells your computer to read the CD in the disc drive. The "D" drive is the default letter for your disc drive.
- 5). Type "CD\Win98 (or whatever your operating system is) and press "Enter."
- 6). Type "Setup" and press "Enter."
- 7). Follow the installation prompts from the CD.
- 1). Download and install a registry cleaner to your computer.
- 2). Run the program and fix any ".dll" errors specified in the log report.
- 3). Download the Kernel32.dll file from a website with a clean copy of this file.
- 4). Press "Start", then "Run" and type in "system32."
- 5). Copy the Kernel32.dll file to this directory (or drag and drop it into the window). Close the window. You should no longer receive the ".dll" error message after this point.
