Re: unable to open .sys and .dll files

What happens when you try? When did this start? What changes did you make? Have you scanned for malware?

Re: unable to open .sys and .dll files

Why would you want to open these files? When you attempt to "open" one of these files, you will be prompted to supply the application to perform that action. They are not normally meant to be opened or altered.

A *.sys file is an operating system "control" file, it dictates certain parameters or loads certain drivers.

*.dll (dynamic-link library) http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionar...c-link+library

Re: unable to open .sys and .dll files

The system will handle these files. You shouldn't mess with them.

Your drivers are posted in your other thread. http://www.d-a-l.com/help/showthread...d=1#post168363
