Ever since downloading IE version 7, I get the following error appearing at start up:

'The procedure entry point GetProcessImagefileNameW could not be located in the dynamic link library PSAPI.DLL'

Not really causing me any problems, just more of a nuisance. Any ideas?

Cheers

Try this and I can see where the PSAPI.DLL is then can advise on what to try.

1)click start run type in "cmd" enter,without the ",s
2)in the box copy and paste the below quote into it,and post the results from notpad when it comes up.
dir /s /a "c:\*PSAPI.DLL*.*" > c:\find.txt & start notepad c:\find.txt

See if the information on this page (http://www.hanselman.com/blog/TheProcedureEntryPointGetProcessImageFileNameWCoul dNotBeLocatedInTheDynamicLinkLibraryPSAPIDLLAfterI E7.aspx) helps.

Some say that there no need to rename them all so try just rename the ones in program files first.

You will find them here, rename the psapi.dll in these folders.
rename them to something like psapiold.dll reboot and see if you get any errors now.
