I have been experiencing the following error message for some time: "the iphlpapi.dll file cannot start. check the file to determine the problem. ".
i am running windows 98 SE, AOL 9.0, and norton system works
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Kameronk

With the limited information you can look here...
Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 279866 ... but says it's a wME fix.
Also you can check out this thread...
iphlpapi.dll error

 

If you upgraded to broadband when this problem occured .....
MSBBN: "Iphlpapi.dll Cannot Start" Error Message When You Try to Install Broadband
It would appear the base problem to most of these solutions ... "The system file Iphlpapi.dll is missing or damaged." If you download it, be sure it's for w98 SE.

 

thank you, but these downloads do not help

these downloads are for win ME, thank you anyway.

 

I couldn't help noticing while doing a pre-emptive search for this that AOL version 9 is known to have a bug problem with it's version of this file versus winxp's version and "system file protection ". You, as an AOL user, and privy to their support should check with said same and see what their work around for this problem is. Perhaps they've come up with a patch by now.

Please keep post updated should my guesstimate be accurate and AOL has the work around/fix.

 

No warranty if the file from this link will help, does say for 95,98,ME.

Did alot of browsing on this one... it rarely came as a singlar problem... generally was coupled with install of other software.. most common was AOL 9.x, Norton/Symantec, IE 5x, or connection problem with internet... but there was numerous others. Can you provide more information when you receive the error message. Information from the screen, what program are you loading....?

Are you using Internet Connection Sharing? What type of internet connection?
