Programs cannot find MS???80.DLL files but they are on my hard dis

[Pete Carr]

Hi,
I have some problems with My WIndows XP Pro I installed a few days ago.
It has all updates from the Microsoft update center etc.

1. When I check my event viewer under Administive Tools or run a Registry
Checker Program
I see many errors about missing MSVCR80.DLL and many more MS*80.DLL files.
I also see where programs have tried to acces these files and cannor find
them in the Event Viewer.
I did a search of my Hard Disk and they all (MS***80.DLL) show up on my hard
disk.
Can you experts help me with this.

Thanks a million.

All the updates?
Is this critical updates only?
Did you update drivers there?
Have you checked the update history for failed updates?
Have you windows defender or Norton installed?
