Hello!

I am having some issues that I hope someone can help me with. Two
weeks ago my hard drive died and was replaced. Since then, I have been
getting a lot of gdiplus.dll errors. Some I have fixed, others I don't
know what to do about. I think these issues are all related to the
gdiplus errors, but I am not sure.

1. When I look at picture files in My Pictures, they currently only
show the JPEG icon and not the actual picture. (I have changed the view,
etc - no help). At one point I got an error that said gdiplus.dll not
found. Reinstalling this application may fix this problem.

2. My desktop will not restore - it is currently on that white screen
that has the button you push to restore - but when I push this button,
it tells me that it cannot run the scrips

3. The icons on my desktop are all a weird size - when I try to fix in
properties, I get the rundll32.exe error that says unable to locate
gdiplus.dll

Other information:
I am running XP on a Compaq laptop. The laptop only came with a
restore disk, so I don't have a full copy to run a repair installation
(best buy wants to charge me $130 to do with this no guaranteed
results). I have tried downloading the gdiplus.dll, but I don't really
know what to do with it once I download it.

Thanks in advance for anyhelp you might be able to provide!

Hallie
Can someone help? I really can't afford to take this thing back in for
someone to look at it again.
