Problem with May 2010 b patch

[ezlead]

If anyone can help;

FE2 Feb 2010 runs fine,FE2 Mar 2010 runs fine.

When I patch to May 2010-B ,the game won't run and I get this error message.

 

The procedure entry point DecodePointer could not be located

in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.DLL.

 

I've tried several times,even reinstalling and then patching.

KERNEL32.DLL. is a Windows file it seems you are missing it try googling it you should be able to download the file and drop it into your Program files/Windows/System32 folder.

If you reinstall it - does it still run okay at all without 2010B? or do you get the same error?

KERNEL32.dll is in the system 32 folder. I tried to delete it and install another,but windows automatically makes a new one.

Yes,it runs fine after a reinstall-Feb2010 and Mar2010.

When I patch May it doesn't run and I get the same error message.

Hey everybody that helped:

TK suggested that I install latest directx and XP SP2 and SP3.

 

FYI for all: installed latest directx and no joy.

Installed XP SP2,reinstalled FE2 and then patched May 2010b patch.

It now runs like a swiss watch.

THANKS everyone for the help!!
