Re: systemie.exe

Do you know if this PC was originally set up with Windows 3.1 or NT then
upgraded to Windows 2000?  If so, that object could just be some roadkill
that the upgrade didn't get rid of.  Your office PC were probably scratch
installs but sometimes home PC's can be a different story.

DISCLAIMER--I'm not a big Win 2K expert.  I've used it at work for a few
years at work but a tech has always loaded it.  At home I've done my share
of DOS/Windows 3.1/95/98 installs.  In the "old days" I would always
upgrade the previous version.  I assume that this is an option for a W2K
installation.  At any rate, since it's not on your office PC's it's
probably not critical.  Have you tried moving it to another folder or
deleting it to see what happens?

Does anybody know anything about this file, "systemie.exe"?

The CEO has it on his home W2K PC in the WINNT\system32 directory.  I do
not
find it on any W2K machine here in our office, nor on any XP machines.
What
happens is every time he wants to shut down, he gets "SYSTEMIE.EXE - DLL
initialization failed.  Failed because the windows station is shutting
down." It doesn't seem to cause a problem any other time.  The created and
modified dates on the file are both 12/13/03.

I've searched Google, Metacrawler, Jeeves, Microsoft, Symantec, with no
results in English.  The only page I found was on Microsoft,

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=/support/windows3x/winfile/w3
1y2kpl.asp

But I can't even determine what language it is, and it appears to be about
Win 3.1 anyway.

Any help greatly appreciated.
