Hi,

Can any one help me? Visual C++ 4.1 no longer runs on my machine. 

My initial investigations have led me to believe that VC++ isn't able to
find the required dlls in the WINNT\SYSTEM32 directory. The dlls are there,
if I copy them into the same directory as the executable it runs fine. 

I've checked the path and environment variables, WINNT\SYSTEM32 is in the
path, so it's obviously a deeper problem.

Thanks in advance,
John Ward
