Hi everyone, is it possible to get kernel32.dll for free from reasonable people - I mean no hacker site? Each time I try to install flash player I keep getting an error message: "The procedure entry point RtlCaptureContext could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll." And is this the way to get Flash Player Running? (My system: Windows2000 Professional).

Kind regards,

Heidi

    Don't do it - KERNEL32.DLL is an integral part of your operating system; don't exchange it with a different version!

    What is the version of your KERNEL32.DLL file?  On my Windows 2000 (SP4) system the version is 5.0.2195.7135, dated 2007-04-16, size 697KB.

    If you have the same, then you have the correct version for your system.

    Now for your error message (which I did not get when I installed Flash Player on my system):

    • what is your browser?
    • what version are you trying to install?
    • what is the name of your installer?  (or are you installing via DLM?)
