===========================================
Did you type the command or copy/paste? Is it
possible that you made a typo? (it must be exact)

If the command was correct, try searching your
HD for: "shimgvw.dll" (without the quotes).
If you find the file...post the location.

Also try...

go to...Start / Run and type (or copy/paste):

"regsvr32 %windir%\system32\shimgvw.dll"
(without the quotes)(Yes, there's
a space between 2 and %)

Hi John,

I did type the command exactly as it was supposed to be, yet the same error
pops up. I did a search for the file you said to search for, and it was
found at this location: C:\windows\system32

Also, the same error popped up again in regards to the start/run you
recommended below.

Any ideas?

Thanks a bunch,
D
