Missing NTDLL.DLL:NTShutdownsystem....

FallenWings · 05-20-2006, 10:58 PM

Hello,
i run a Win 98. I bought an Ipod and apprently it said my Computer needed Windows SP4,or Windows XP
I downloaded Windows 2000 SP4 to update.
Once that was finished, i opened the file and it said:

WZKSP4_EN.EXE is missing NTDLL.DLL:NTShutdownsystem

I clicked ok then it said:

C:/Mydocuments/WZKSP4_EN.EXE A device attached to the system is not functioning.

Ive tried downloading ActiveX (as i read in other sites) but its not useful...

Does anyone know how to fix this problem or anything else to get around this?

thanks

What do you mean by this. If you downloaded Windows 2000 SP4 as a os and installed it then you are really in for some bad things happening. But if it was something else that you did then you are fine. Post back and tell me exactly what you mean by you downloaded Windows 2000 SP4 to update.

Do you mean you downloaded the W2K SP4 package and tried to install that to your PC that's running Windows 98??
Dude, you can't just plunk a package written for W2K into W98.

First off, Windows 98 was written in the FAT32 file format. W2K is NTFS, a completely different file structure.

Do you have a real true Win98 OS CD? Maybe you can do a repair. I honestly don't know.

It took me about 1 minute to find this -

Claims to make W98 PC's work w/ iPod's. Don't know if it's legit. Win98SE had some USB support, if you've got Win98 it's probly time to upgrade the OS if not the whole PC.

If I may make a suggestion, next time come to the forum and ask before trying something you're unsure of, O.K.?
