kernel32.dll error with Ultima Online

[Kakashi]

I keep having a problem with Ultima Online as well as Diablo2 dealing with kernel32.dll. Everytime I reboot or close the program out at all after playing, when trying to open it again later I get an error saying uo.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close everytime I click the icon to open it. I've checked all of UO's sites, no help there. Does the same thing with Diablo2 as well though.

Exactly which OS are you running?

Windows XP. Oh.. and nomatter how many times I reinstall it still does that after closing the window out and trying to open it again.

Hi Kakashi,

I'd bet that this problem may have something to do with, alternatively:

1-The graphic card or audio device. Have a look around the "Core Gamer" web pages and alike for a corrective patch, if any. Also note that some manufacturors (like ATI) have developed game-specific patches for their cards.

2-Settings put to your explorer, which may block the cookies required by the service provider. Also a special program, not yet installed on your computer, that this provider would demand for online service.

3-Disrupted connection during the loading process (guess a freeware like "Flashget" could help).
