Hi all I recently installed the Animator Studio update under Win95 and when I try to execute it, I get the message 'you application is making an invalid dynamic link call to a .DLL file <close>' or something similar. Incidentally, this message also appears when I try to open the soundcard mixer in the 'multimedia' folder' Does anyone have any idea what's going on? – Derek

"I recently installed the Animator Studio update under Win95 and when I try to execute it, I get the message 'you application is making an invalid dynamic link call to a .DLL file" Make sure you're installing AAStudio 1.1. This message sounds like something you might get installing AAStudio 1.0 onto Win95. If you have the old one, call 800/538-6401 for an update.

Hi I have already installed v1.1 but I cannot run it because it gives me that message under Win95 about the invalid call to a DLL file. It also says that I have Video for Windows v1.1e. – Derek

"the invalid call to a DLL file" Derek: QA would like the exact error message, and when it comes up. Is it possible for you to let me know? Sorry it's taking so long to resolve this. Version 1.1 should be working fine for your under Win95, since we've got scores of folks who are running it properly without your problem.

Hi the message is PROGRAM ERROR Your program is making an invalid dynamic link call to an invalid .DLL file. I can only close the window. This error comes up for all the modules except Sound Lab. I am also getting this error when I try to run MPLAYER.EXE from my windows directory. It seems as if I may have an old multimedia related .DLL file lurking in my system. Problem is, how can I identify it? I have a SoundBlaster 16 card in this machine. – Derek
