Re: What does this mean, and how do I fix it

[Jeff Haferman <haferman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

kernel32.dll is a tough one to figure out sometimes.
Use Walter's method below to determine if it is
corrupt.

If not, see the following URL:
http://www.windowstrouble.com/kernel32dll.shtml

I had a problem with kernel32.dll that I fixed by
turning "hardware acceleration" of my display to "none"
using
Control Panel/display/settings/advanced/performance

Good luck,
Jeff
