I keep getting hits to the same thing for ME too Linkmaster, Sep 16, 2003 #4 shoeby2 Thread Starter Joined: Nov 12, 2001 Messages: 87 TW, Thanks for the link - I went to the site and extracted the POWRPROF.DLL file https://forums.techguy.org/threads/solved-powrprof-dll-file-cannot-start.165124/ but I still keep getting the error message at startup. This message comes up twice: "Error loading POWRPROF.DLL A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed." This is then followed by an error starting program message that says: "The POWRPROF.DLL file cannot start. Check the file to determine the problem." I'm not sure what to try next - any suggestions? Thanks again for your help, Brian shoeby2, Sep 16, 2003 #5 Linkmaster Joined: Aug 11, 2001 Messages: 2,872 Did you go to start, run type msconfig Hit ok Click on the startup tab Make sure there are check marks next to one or two instances of Loadpowerprofile you see then hit apply and ok reboot see if that resolves it Linkmaster, Sep 16, 2003 #6 shoeby2 Thread Starter Joined: Nov 12, 2001 Messages: 87 Just looked at the startup and both loadpowerprofiles are checked and active. shoeby2, Sep 16, 2003 #7 Linkmaster Joined: Aug 11, 2001 Messages: 2,872 Hi shoeby2, Have you installed any new software or hardware before this error started happening? Have you ran your antivirus?? Just trying to cover the basics. Linkmaster, Sep 18, 2003 #8 shoeby2 Thread Starter Joined: Nov 12, 2001 Messages: 87 TW, This error started to show up after I ran Norton Systemworks, the Registry Tracker I believe and it did a clean-up of sorts. I've extracted the dll file from both the C drive and also from my Windows ME disk, but I still get the same errors. Thanks, Bria
