KERNEL.DLL?

[Felstado]

Can anyone tell me what KERNEL32.DLL is?

I've just tried loading up Colin McRae rally 2.0 to play with my son and received the message 'Cmr2 has caused an error in KERNEL.DLL. Cmr2 will now close.' I've also lost my desktop shortcuts. What's happening?

I'm running Windows ME on a PII 350MHz machine. Would be grateful if someone could steer me in the right direction.

I could write 2 pages on kernel32.dll but this will explain things much better than I could and may help you solve your problem :)

Kernel= Operating System Core Component.
.DLL= Dynamic Link Library.
An execuitable driver program module for Microsoft Windows that can be loaded on demand and linked in at run time and subsequently unloaded when the driver is no longer needed.
Kernel.32dll = Operating System Core Component, Storage #32 in the Dynamic link Library. Cool Stuff, Hope it helps !
