Missing ADVAP132.DLL

Parvo · 07-15-2007, 12:44 AM

Hi,
I am trying to connect broadband to a computer running Win98se. When I insert the setup disk from my provider I get an error message that reads
" The setup.exe file is linked to the missing export ADVAP132.DLL: convert sid to string sidA. "
Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
Thanks
Parvo

Hi johnwill, thanks for your time.
I rang the provider (Bigpond) and they tell me the setup disk will not work with Win98. I can set it up manually by typing an address into the browser and follow the prompts. I wont be able to get to the comp in question until Wednesday 18th but if I don't have any success I will post back with the details you need.
I'll let you know how it goes.
Thanks
