0.705 win98 problems

Asked by abyss

I'm using Windows 98SE. I downloaded version .705 and installed it. When I go to run the program I get two error pop up windows. One says that a device attached to the system is not functioning and the pop up below it says the dcplusplus.exe file is linked to missing export SHELL32.DLL:SHBindToParent.

I have a feeling both errors come from the same problem. How do I go about solving this problem. UPGRADING OS IS NOT AN OPTION.

Since I'm stuck with win98se I need a solution other than OS upgrade

There are special windows 2k versions that are very small and fast... like 150 mb. You could try it...
Another solution : Try some older DC++ version.. like 0.674 or 0.403

Can you help with this problem?
