KERNEL32.DLL crashes. HELP!!

[ethanwa]

Ok, Win98SE CLEAN INSTALL. No extras or updates or anything. Straight out of the box. Simple code and I get crashes!

What am I doing wrong?

Private Const FLAG_ICC_FORCE_CONNECTION = &H1
Private Declare Function InternetCheckConnection Lib "wininet.dll" Alias "InternetCheckConnectionA" (ByVal lpszUrl As String, ByVal dwFlags As Long, ByVal dwReserved As Long) As Long
Private Sub Form_Load()
    'KPD-Team 2001
    'URL: [url]http://www.allapi.net/[/url]
    'E-Mail: [email][email protected][/email]
    If InternetCheckConnection("http://www.allapi.net/", FLAG_ICC_FORCE_CONNECTION, 0&) = 0 Then
        MsgBox "Connection to [url]http://www.allapi.net/[/url] failed!", vbInformation
    Else
        MsgBox "Connection to [url]http://www.allapi.net/[/url] succeeded!", vbInformation
    End If
End Sub

Here's the crash report:

go for the MFC it will show you which file is damaged and in that it gives you that file name and you can recover it....

for that you can go to the ms dos prompt and type mfc then run the programme...

I think you mean SFC (System File Checker). I ran it and it found no corrupt or bad files. I replaced the KERNEL32.DLL and WININET.DLL files anyway but still got crashes. I also ran a full memory check with no bad sticks found.

I ran Dr. Watson (comes with Windows) and had it make a snapshot of my crash. Looks as though I'm having possible issues with MSVBM60.DLL for some reason?

I'll let you know if I find out more.
