"Flashconfigcreatenetwork" and DLL Error
I'm working on a friend's computer and am getting a"Flashconfigcreatenetwork"
error message whenever I try to set up a wireless connection. He tried to install Service Pack 2, but it locked up during the process and afterward all he could see on bootup (which took many, many minutes) was a desktop with no way to interact with it. I did a repair installation of Windows XP (with SP1) and we were able to get to the desktop and actually do stuff, but according to him it's taking at least twice as long to get there as it did before all his problems started. Also, the system seems to be running much slower than it did before once we do to the Desktop. He's using a NetGear router and we can see it make a connection with the master computer connected the Internet, but Explorer says there is no connection. When we try to use the Wireless Connection Wizard, we get the Wireless Network Setup Wizard "RUNDLL error - Error in wzcdlg.dll Missing entry: FlashConfigCreateNetwork" message. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get this resolved? Thanx! |

Given that your friend seems to think that there is a performance problem after the repair install I would be tempted to format and do a clean install. |

Yes, I re-installed the drivers for the Netgear Router. It has a Configuration Utility, and it says we are making a connection with the master computer (or some other wireless network in the vicinity possibly). The funny thing about the Netgear driver installation was that it prompted us to disable some built-in Windows wireless configuration service. Thinking that might have been the source of the problem, I disabled the Netgear Configuration Utility from launching on startup (thru MSCONFIG) but we still get the same error message even when it's not loaded. If we're connecting to the master computer, could the issue be in the TCP/IP settings? I don't think we even touched those. I find this confusing, possibly terminology. "drivers for the Netgear Router" Routers tend to do their on processing and do not need drivers installing on the computer.What is his network? If he is using a wireless card or a USB wireless adapter then I can understand drivers on the computer.When you disabled the netgear config utility did you tell the device to use the "windows zero config" utility, if not then there is a good chance it was not started and therefore would not control the device.Check in Control Panel--Administrative Tools--Services to see if it had started. Some wireless devices require the correct driver for the OS in use e.g Netgear MA111 ver1 had an problem with XP SP2 unless the ver2.5 drivers were used so it is worthwhile checking the version of driver used. |

He gets the error message I described when he tries to use the Wireless Network Configuration Wizard. I'm really stumped. Which Netgear USB adapter was he using?was it a MA111? |
