wlanapi.dll error after SP3 (D-Link) | |||

Hi! I had a problem solved thanx to some forums on web, so I post this. In D-Link Wireless Network, after installing SP3 at the boot of PC, there is an error message about wlanapi.dll. To resolve: The D-Link AirPlus Utility does not work with Windows XP Service Pack 3. Upon loading, it displays: "AirGCFG.exe - Entry Point Not Found. The procedure enry point apsGetInterfaceCount could not be located in the dynamic link library wlanapi.dll.". A workaround is to use the pre-SP3 version of wlanapi.dll and place it in the appropriate directories. Upon loading, this version of the file will be used instead of the version in the System32 directory. xcopy %Windir%\$NtServicePackUninstall$\wlanapi.dll "%ProgramFiles%\D-Link\AirPlus G" xcopy %Windir%\$NtServicePackUninstall$\wlanapi.dll "%ProgramFiles%\ANI\ANIWZCS2" -- http://kb.cadzow.com.au:15384/Cadzow/details.aspx?ID=1898 it worked fine on my PC desktop with Windows XP Pro SP3..... Bye Francesco . |

Contact D-Link for update. They caused DLL name conflict (aka "DLL hell") with MS, they ought to provide update for their software that resolves this. --PA My wrote: > Hi!

Hi I tried this and I'm stilling getting the missing .dll file error. I even found and downloaded the wlanapi.dll and placed it in the respective directory "%ProgramFiles%\D-Link\AirPlus G" and "%ProgramFiles%\ANI\ANIWZCS2" - what am I doing wrong?

A *way* better idea is to get the latest SP3 compatible version of the vendor WLAN drivers. A long time passed since SP3, all vendors have their stuff updated. The poor guy guilty for that DLL name conflict with the MS Wireless update probably will get back to work from jail soon ;) Regards, --pa "Storhannus" <Storhannus (~=~) discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:C6FD2E0F-B4C1-4299-90D1-7776AEF971BC (~=~) microsoft.com... > Hi.
