My system is a TouchSmart 600-1350. Windows 7 64-bit O/S.

Lately, every time I start or reboot the system, a dropdown window titled RunDLL appears. The text says: "There was a problem starting C:\Users....... (see above under subject). The specific module could not be found.". I click on OK, the dropdown window fades out. I don't seem to have a problem in the system. Can anyone explain what happened and whether a corrective action is necessary? Thank you. I am at {Personal Information Removed}

            Three  things you can do to try to fix corrupted files.

            1. Run a complete PC tune up using HP Sopport Assistant. Make sure you check mark all delete temp files, Empty recycling bin and Chek mark Microsoft Defrag. See if this corrects your dll. problem.

           2.  Run Check Disc.  Goto my computer click on C.drive, Select properties Click on Tools tab. Click on Check now. Next window Check Disk  HP (C Important to check mark both boxes Then click start next window click on schedule disk check. Close out all open whindows and restart your computer.

          If the first has not corrected the issue then preceed to step 3.

          3. Microsoft Recovery . Goto all programs search box. Type in Recovery Manger will be listed above now. Click on it. When it opens select Microsoft System Restore.

Thanks for the reply. I went through all three steps. The dropdown window still appears when restarting. Is there anything else that can be done?

Hello okibilir:

         Back recover did not fix it? You need to undo last restore and go even futher back in time. Until it is gone. You should know how long ago the last time your computer work right with out this error message.http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_do_you_fix_run_dll_as_an_app_error I do not know how all these guick fix scans work or witch ones are safe to use. There are several listed on this page. Not knowing what program this run dill relates to does't help.  Hopefully an expert reads this and is able to add more options to resolve this issue. Manually delete it. Type it in program search box  click  on it select open file location When it shows up click on file select properties file will open just read it. See if recognize any names or software it pertains. If do not recognize it. Just delete it. It is not found on HP Touchsmart 600-1050 Windows 7 Ultimate with XP Virtual Windows 64 bit I checked my system.. Like the article says could be a malware, spyware or avirus. Not fully removed.
