How to Fix a Computer That Fails to Startup


How to Fix a Desktop Computer That Fails to Start Up
1. Check the power source. Go to the wall outlet where the computer, or its power strip, is plugged in and work toward the computer. Fix any problem you find and test your machine again.
2. Disconnect all cables coming out of the back of your desktop. Remove the cover. Reconnect the power cord. When you press the 'On' button, do any tiny lights illuminate on the motherboard, the power supply, or the status indicator lights on the front? If neither lights nor sound are emitted, your power supply may be dead.
3. Shut down the machine. Disconnect the power supply from the motherboard and any drives or other devices. Remove the four screws that hold the power supply in place on the chassis. Remove the power supply box.
4. Use a power supply tester to quickly test the box. If any lights come up red on the tester, the power supply is dead. If you don't have a tester, acquire an identical power supply you know is good from another source, such as another computer, and substitute it for a 'tester.'
5. Rest this 'tester' power supply on the outside of the computer. Plug it into the motherboard. Plug the monitor cable back in. Turn on the computer. If the computer boots to BIOS, your original power supply is certainly bad. Replace it before continuing testing.
6. Shut down the computer. Gently remove the silver clock battery from the motherboard. Press the power button to clear any residual electricity. Now put the clock battery back in. Reconnect the monitor and reboot. If the computer doesn't boot to BIOS, your motherboard is most likely bad. If it passes this test, continue.
7. Test the hard drive last. Shut down the computer. Switch the electrical connector serving the hard drive with a different one. Test again. If that doesn't work, disconnect the IDE cable connecting the hard drive to the motherboard and replace it with another IDE cable. If these steps fail to boot the drive, shut the computer down. Remove the hard drive. Install the hard drive as a proper slave drive on another computer and see if can be read by this other machine. Turn on the computer and go to 'Start,' 'My Computer,' and look for this slave drive. If it can't be found, the hard drive is probably dead. Replace it and reinstall Windows.

4. Open the 'Start' menu, type 'Run' in the search bar and click on the 'Run' link in the results column.

How to Find Shell32.Dll for IE6


Locating Your Version of Shell32.dll and Determining Its Version
1. Double click on the icon that says 'My Computer', or click on the Start button and select 'My Computer' from the menu. This will open a Windows Explorer window for navigating through the file system of your computer.
2. Double click on the icon labeled 'C:\'. Then double click on the folder that says WINDOWS. This will take you to the Windows directory.
3. Double click on the folder labeled System32 within the Windows Directory. This is where Windows installs Dynamic Link Library (DLL) files. (DLL files are shared components that many programs use; Windows stores them and loads them as needed.)
4. Click on the 'Tools' menu item at the top of the Windows Explorer panel. Select 'Folder Options'. From the dialog window that comes up, select the 'View' tab.
5. Click the check box for 'show hidden files and folders' if it is not checked already; this will make sure that Windows isn't hiding the DLL files from you.
6. Look for the file 'shell32.dll'. Put your mouse cursor over the file, and click with the right mouse button. A small menu (called a context sensitive menu) will pop up. Select 'Properties'. Look at the version number. The most recent version of shell32.dll for Windows XP (and IE6) is 6.0.2900.6018, which was updated in Windows XP Service Pack 3. For Windows Vista the most recent version begins with 6.0.1, and for Windows 7 it begins with 6.1.0.
Updating Your Version of Shell32.dll to the Most Recent Version.
7. Launch Internet Explorer. Microsoft Update will not run with other web browsers.
8. Navigate to Microsoft Support (see Resources).
9. Click on the link that says 'Windows Update.' Microsoft's website will ask for some information about your Windows installation to determine what Service Pack level you're at. It will then prompt you to save the service pack, and after it's downloaded, the installer will prompt you to reboot.
10. Repeat steps 1 through 3 of this section as often as necessary until you're up to the most recent service pack for your version of Windows. This will update shell32.dll to the most recent version for your operating system, as well as plugging many security holes in the operating system.

How to Fix the System 32 Dll


Update the Drivers
1. Boot your computer in safe mode. To do so, press the power button to turn the computer on and press the “F8” key every few seconds until the “Advanced Boot Options” appears. Use the down-arrow key to move through the boot options; choose “Safe Mode” and press “Enter.”
2. Open the “Start” menu on your Windows system. Click “All Programs>Accessories>Run” to open the “Run” function.
3. Enter “wupdmgr” in the “Run” box and press the “Enter” key on the keyboard. Windows searches the Internet for updates available for the operating system, and installs the updates automatically.
4. Launch the program that keeps displaying the System32.Dll error message from “Start>All Programs.” If the program launches without an error message, the System32.Dll file was replaced during the update.
Replace the File Manually
5. Download a new System 32 Dll file from a Dll file library. Since you won’t have access to the Internet in safe mode, you must do this on another computer. Dll file libraries where you can download a System32.dll file for free include DLL Download System, DLL Files and DLL Nerd (see Resources).
6. Go to the folder where the downloaded System 32 Dll file is saved, which is more than likely the system’s “Downloads” folder. Right-click on the System32.dll folder and select “Extract” from the menu to pull the actual files from the System32.dll folder.
7. Plug an external storage device, like a thumb drive, into the computer you used to download the System32.dll file. If the device folder doesn’t open automatically, go to “Start>Computer” and double-click the thumb drive in the drive list.
8. Return to the “Start” menu and click “Computer” again. Double-click the “C:” drive, go to “Users,” double-click the folder of the user account on which the Dll file was downloaded and double-click the “Downloads” folder. Drag and drop each of the files from the “Downloads” folder to the external hard drive folder.
9. Remove the external hard drive from the computer where you downloaded the System32.dll file and plug it into the computer that is missing the System32.dll file. If the external hard drive folder doesn’t automatically open, go to “Start>Computer” and double-click the drive to open it. Open the computer’s “Start” menu. Go to “Computer>C:>Windows>System32” to open the “System32” folder. Drag the System32.dll file from the external hard drive window into the “System32” folder. Click “Yes” if asked if you want to replace the original System32.dll file.
