All of a sudden, whenever ANYTHING loads that has something to do with installshield (new or old) then I get an error in MSVCRT.dll which reads:
 
Title: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
MSCVRT.DLL for Win32
Error: MSVCRT.DLL is not compatible with Win32s.
 
Occasionally, I will also get a blank error box, with only an OK button on it.
 
It is becoming a real problem, as often during a program, I will get the error. If I leave it, the prog will close, and will usually take explorer with it.
 
I am on SP2, and HAVE tried getting the VC++ runtime files again.
 
I hope someone can shed some light on this situaton, cos I don't wanna have to format.
