MSIMG32.dll problem

Post by Leaf »

Hi. Whenever I try to run basic things such as the help option in my Windows, or the printer, I get an error message saying I don't have: MSIMG32.dll, and won't let me continue. Can anybody help?

Thank you. :thumb:

I already told you what you needed to do, it's up to you to find an XP disc.

Oh yeah, I know. I posted a reply saying I couldn't actually find the disc and asking if there was any other way to resolve the situation. I thought it went unnoticed so I made a new thread...

Thought I'd start from the top again ya see. ;)

You can Google it..download a copy from a known good source, and re-register it.

No, you need to download the dll file from somewhere like HERE. You really need to get your hands on an XP disc, a lot of times when you get infected with malware it will corrupt a lot of system files that need to be replaced with the original from the cd.
