View Full Version : Explorer.exe - Entry Point Not Found after installing SP2

Whenever I log on or open explorer.exe or regedit I get the message
'Exlorer.exe -Entry Point Not Found' as the title of the message box then
'The procedure entry point FT_Exit12 could not be located in the dynamic
link library KERNEL32.dll'

I tried a repair with my original XP cd. (Not a good idea lol. Windows still
reported that Sp2 was installed still when it was obviously NOT).

This fixed the problem but as soon as I installed SP2 again the same error
came back.

Any ideas?

Cheers

I never noticed before but spoolsv.exe is sitting at 99% cpu usage.

Im not doing anything but it is slowing my machine down big time.
