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?

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. -- Jeff Crosby Dilgard Frozen Foods, Inc. P.O. Box 13369 Ft.
