rundll error?

[govtcheez75]

Right after my computer boots up, I get this error everytime:

"RUNDLL
OCpp.dll
The specified module could not be found"

...can someone please tell me how to get rid of this, and why it pops up?

Some application is looking for that ocpp.dll file and can't find it on start up.

The trick is figuring out which app is trying to use it. A lot of times doing a google search on the dll will give you some info, but I got nothing on this one.

Edit - you could try searching through the registry for any references to that dll and see if the keys help you out in determining what app is trying to access it.

it's probably a command in the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

do you see a command to use rundll to load this dll?

I don't know. How do I check, and where would I see this command?
....thanks in advance for the help.

run the registry editor by typing "regedit" in the Start | Run prompt. then, navigate through the hierarchy of folders until you reach the one that says Run. on the right side of the window will be a list of things that run when you start Windows. let us know if you see this dll in one of those commands.

alternately, you can run msconfig from the Start | Run prompt and it should also tell you what is configured to run when you start up. you can try disabling the command there to see if anything is affected.

It can be anything because its a library file
Or it can be a virus infecting the DLL files... I had a similar problem with a virus and sorry to say but it was only fixed when i formatted...
Good luck

Also check HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

thanks for all the help guys! I found the culprit. It was something in the registry that tried to set the clock speek on my video card (I think back to default from it's overclock speeds), and I deleted it. It doesn't pop up anymore, and everything is just dandy! Thanks again for all the help. You guys have been great!
