Win98/1E Kernel32.dll

[Deftmar]

Hi folks,

I've been having a problem lately with Windows 98, specifically with crashing while using certain programs. The problem is invariably with kernel32.dll and it usually happens with Netscape but it has also happened with other programs.

I have already tried reinstalling Netscape, and to no avail. Is there some sort of conflict between certain programs and kernel32.dll? If so, is there any way to update the kernel? I know that Windows NT has service packs, but I don't know of anywhere that I can update Windows 98.

Any help would be appreciated,
Deftmar

Need to know the specific error message. Post it or look it up on the Microsoft Knowledge Database (http://search.microsoft.com/us/SearchMS25.asp)

i'm having problems with this blasted "kernel" too. i use outlook express, not netscape, so it is probably not netscape per se. and it's not just when i'm using outlook, either.
you can update windows 98 at www.microsoft.com. (http://www.microsoft.com.) they have a "windows update" page. but i've got all the most recent updates and it hasn't helped.
