"Active X component can't creat object" error on startup
I'm using Windows XP Home Edition on my Sony laptop, without problems until
recently. At startup, and also when launching Explorer, I am now getting the following Smartissue error message: Active X component can't creat object error on startup. Src: Microsoft VBScript runtime error Line:6 Error:0 Scode: 800aOlad I searched for solutions and ended up stuck after downloading and running Microsoft's MDAC Component Checker utility. I then send an email to Sony and they direted me to the same place: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en The utility showed that I am running MDAC version 2.7 SP1 on Windows XP SP1 and it showed the version on my system has no mismatches (errors) in the Com or Registry categories, but it does have 5 mismatches in the File details category! Sound like I found the problem..until i looked at the report more closely and learned that the mismatches were only File VERSION mismatches... and in all five cases it showed a mismatch only because i had a newer version of the dll file on my system. Now what??? I am too old for this kind of stuff anymore! And SONY support seems to know less than I do, which is scary. Thanks in advance. |
