This
.DLL is very
important! If this .DLL has errors,
it could occur at any
time during a Windows
session, but is usually prompted when a program the user is
attempting to run is trying to access the memory that this .DLL is
currently using. If you are receiving this error you should first
troubleshoot the issue by doing the following:
Restart your computer. The error
may not persist.
Reinstall the program that
caused the error.
Remove any .DLL files that you
have saved to your Desktop.
Decrease the Hardware
Acceleration on your video card or overclocked processor settings
(This often resolves the issue.)
Run a virus scan (Some viruses
can cause Kernel32.dll errors.)
Update your drivers (Video card
can cause Kernel32.dll errors.)
Test your system memory for
damage (Random applications that throw Kernel32.dll errors is a sign
that your system memory is damaged.)
Run a repair installation of
Windows (For older versions, this requires a disc.)
If none of these solutions work,
then you need to either replace the .DLL or do a clean install of
Windows. A clean install of Windows can be timely so I will explain
how to replace Kernel32.dll...
Download
Kernel32.dll
Follow the instructions provided
at the link above.
If replacing the .DLL with a new
one did not work, try a clean installation of Windows. If a clean
installation of Windows does not work then it is most likely bad
hardware (RAM, hard drive). |
