Help, need missing Windows Vista System File.

Hello Fellow Vista Forum Members

I am having a slight issue with Windows Vista

I am Running Windows Vista Ultimate 32-Bit Edition. When Windows i
done booting up i encounter the "error" of the message tha
c:\WINDOWS\system32\nokmodxn.dll is missing

I would to know if there is a way to gain access to this file and if i
might be located on the installation dvd and or i can simply copy an
paste the file into the system folder, i am wanting to avoid syste
restore if i can. Would be possible for someone to send the nokmodxn.dl
to me via email or some uploadable site

Thanks, and i appreciate any responses.:cool

A quick Google for "nokmodxn.dll" brings up nothing, which is usually an
indication that the file is malware. If you recently removed malware, then
the removal tool left a reference to the malware in Startup. If you haven't
recently scanned, it would be a good idea to do so.

Managing your Startup:

Start Orb>Search box>type: msconfig and when it appears in the Results box
above, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator".

If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation,
type the password, or click Continue. Then see what is on the Startup tab.
You don't need to restart immediately, but the next time you do you'll get
a dialog saying you've used the Utility. Usually in Vista this will be
blocked by Windows Defender and you'll need to allow it so you can then
tick the box that says in effect, "don't bother me about this again".

Important - Do not use the System Configuration Utility to stop processes.
Instead, use Services.

Start Orb>Search box>type: services and when it appears in the Results box
above, right-click and choose "Run As Administrator". Confirm elevation as
needed.

The free Autoruns program is very useful for managing your Startup -

Just because a DLL is in System32 does that mean that the DLL is a
system file. Many 3rd party vendors will place their DLL(s) in System32,
because it's in the O/S search path when the O/S is searching for
programs such as DLL(s).

Nodmodxn.dll is now where to be found on this Ultimate 32bit Vista system.

Hi WinFreak,
With the same configuration as yours, there is no sign of a Nodmodxn.dll in
my system.
Suggest you follow Malke and Jack advise. Good luck
