N Chase,
I was really stuck while working on a customer's computer. I was attempting a reinstall
of Windows ME in order to fix a sound problem and the reinstall crashed due to a
problem with comctl32.dll. I found a version of this file and copied it into the
Windows\System directory, but the reinstall still crashed. Then I ran across your
post and went to www.dll-files.com. I downloaded comctl32.dll from this site and
was able to complete the reinstallation of Windows ME (which fixed the sound problem,
by the way). Since the customer didn't have the Windows ME disk, and since I'm not
working out of shop and had no version of ME available, I would have been WAY up
a creek with no paddle! I just wanted to thank you for the information you provided.
That site (www.dll-files.com) was a life saver!
