Pardon me, but isn't someone's dll files the same as you had on your cdrom?

THat's what I though.... :confused:

yeah i know that..i aint a moron! but these files r corrupted while installation( gives no error as file is copied ) or r not correctly given in the first place ..please someone try this and give a feedback... if this doesnt work i will have to dig deeper...
