Many dll file can be found by doing google search, but not all can be manually installed.

What is the operating system and what are program you trying to install or repair? Let me know and I'll see what can do to help you out.

I how this helps. Let me know in comment section how it turns out.

Take a look in Event Viewer I looked in Event Viewer to find out what MSI-file that generated the error message and found:
Log Name: Application
Source: MsiInstaller
Date: 23.09.2010 21:58:26
Event ID: 1040
... ...
Description:
Beginning a Windows Installer transaction: C:\ProgramData\Skype\{D103C4BA-F905-437A-8049-DB24763BBE36}\SkypeToolbars.msi. Client Process Id: 6564.
2. Running MSIEXEC with logging options I started a "Command Promt" and used the command: "cd C:\ProgramData\Skype\{D103C4BA-F905-437A-8049-DB24763BBE36}" to navigate into the folder containing the MSI-file.
Now using the command: "msiexec /i SkypeToolbars.msi /lv log.txt" (msiexec options: /i = Install, /lv = Log + Verbose output).
After clicking away the error message I just wrote "log.txt" in my "Command Promt" to open the log-file. Near the bottom of the log-file I found this line:
DEBUG: Error 2738: Could not access VBScript runtime for custom action
3. DEBUG: Error 2738 After a quick search at Google I found out this error indicates that the VBScript engine is not registered on the computer.

The solution for a Windows Vista or Windows 7 32bit:
- Click Start -> All Programs -> Accessories
- Right click "Command Promt" and click on "Run as administrator"
- Write "cd %windir%\system32" and hit Enter
- Write "regsvr32.exe vbscript.dll" and hit Enter
- You should now get a message that says: "DllRegisterServer in vbscript.dll succeeded."
- Click "OK"
The solution for a Windows Vista or Windows 7 64bit:
- Click Start -> All Programs -> Accessories
- Right click "Command Promt" and click on "Run as administrator"
- Write "cd %windir%\syswow64" and hit Enter
- Write "regsvr32.exe vbscript.dll" and hit Enter
- You should now get a message that says: "DllRegisterServer in vbscript.dll succeeded."
- Click "OK"
4. Try again... Now I tried once more to run "msiexec /i SkypeToolbars.msi /lv log.txt" (I kept the /lv log.txt option to look for changes if the installer would fail again).
If you still get the same Error than continue to step 5.
5. Cleanup registry first, then re-reg My installation still gave me the same error, so after some more searching and reading on Google I found a solution that explained what I tried before (with the regsvr32.exe) and also an alternative step if that one should fail. The alternative step was to remove the Registry Key pointing to vbscript.dll.
The alternative solution for a Windows Vista or Windows 7 32bit is then:
- Click Start -> All Programs -> Accessories
- Right click "Command Promt" and click on "Run as administrator"
- Write "reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}" /f" and hit Enter
- Write "cd %windir%\system32" and hit Enter
- Write "regsvr32.exe vbscript.dll" and hit Enter
- You should now get a message that says: "DllRegisterServer in vbscript.dll succeeded."
- Click "OK"
The alternative solution for a Windows Vista or Windows 7 64bit:
- Click Start -> All Programs -> Accessories
- Right click "Command Promt" and click on "Run as administrator"
- Write "reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}" /f" and hit Enter
- Write "cd %windir%\ syswow64" and hit Enter
- Write "regsvr32.exe vbscript.dll" and hit Enter
- You should now get a message that says: "DllRegisterServer in vbscript.dll succeeded."
- Click "OK"
Now using the command "msiexec /i SkypeToolbars.msi /lv log.txt" the installer started perfectly, ran all the way thru and Finished.
Conclusion This message indicates that VBScript engine is not currently registered on the Computer running the installer.
Vbscript.dll must get registered to solve the problem.

A possible solution for you if you have the space on your harddrive is to copy the entire contents over from the disc to a temporary folder, and install from there. Once installed, put your disc in your cdrom drive, and test it. If it works, delete the temp folder, and test again to make sure it's not trying to 'check' the temporary folder, but instead check from the cdrom.
Hope that helps.

Not sure whether this is a Q.
To enable just in time (JIT) debugging, the config file for this application or machine (machine.config) must have the jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section. The application must also be compiled with debugging enabled. For example: <configuration> <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" /> </configuration> When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the machine rather than being handled by this dialog.
In VS the way to enable/disable that is: 1-On the "TOOLS" menu, click Options. 2-In the Options dialog box, select the Debugging folder. 3-In the Debugging folder, select the Just-In-Time page. 4-In the Enable Just-In-Time debugging of these types of code box, select or clear the relevant program types: Managed, Native, or Script. To disable Just-In-Time debugging, once it has been enabled, you must be running with Administrator privileges. Enabling Just-In-Time debugging sets a registry key, and Administrator privileges are required to change that key. 5-Click OK.
It has to be done by the developer and its his responsible to guide the application error reporting to the system event handlers. If this is an issue which occurs in a certain app, have to check for the .net version (specially in vista). Many 1.0 and 1.1 based apps give the problem. To install dotnet fw 1.1 on Vista will give an error. Most of the time caused by DEP (Data Execution Prevention). But the thing is some software forces the installation of .net framework (older versions). How ever Vista is packed with .net 3.0 and 2.0. Even if you allowed to install will not be able to uninstall 2.0 (possible to remove 3.0 though).
How to solve the installation issue: This issue is resolved in Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 SP1, however you will need to use the following procedure to install both the .NET Framework and the Service Pack at the same time: Download Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Redistributable Package and Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1 using links below: Dotnet Framework 1.1 Redest Dotnet Framework 1.1 SP1
Save both installations in the same directory Ensure that the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Redistributable Package is named dotnetfx.exe. If not, change its name to dotnetfx.exe. Ensure that Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1 is named dotnetfxsp1.exe. If not, change its name to dotnetfxsp1.exe. Open command prompt as Administrator, and change to the directory where the two installations are saved. Run the following commands using the order shown below dotnetfx.exe /c:"msiexec.exe /a netfx.msi TARGETDIR=C:dotnet" dotnetfxsp1.exe /Xp:C:dotnet etfxsp.msp msiexec.exe /a c:dotnet etfx.msi /p c:dotnet etfxsp.msp Install both Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 and Service Pack 1 by running C:dotnet etfx.msi
The systems must be backed up before trying this specially the system state. How ever the keys can be repaid in a damage This thread will also be helpful http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/archive/2007/03/26/how-to-repair-the-net-framework-2-0-and-3-0-on-windows-vista.aspx...

There could be many problems, first I need to know what the error message is, you might need to update your dirext x to that latest version at its website, it could also have to do with your windows not being compatable with the game, or not enough requirements to run or even not a good enough graphics card to run the game. U might need to upgrade the graphics card. IU hope I could help

you have to wait for a while to be able to download it for free, its only about 15-20 mins between 100mb downloads anyway, dont pay for anything!!!!

Solution:

i) usually whenever there is virus, spyware, ... in your system some of the .dll will be lost or will lead to curruption or partial currption(some data or all the data in the .dll will be lost)

ii) as such some .dll files are heart or important to run system, some .dll files play mere role.

iii) when such .dll files are lost the program using these .dll files cannot locate or find their .dll files in such you get errors message as u said......

iv) as u debuging is not possible in the normal way until unless you have some debugging program or software such as "Visual Studio 2005" or Visual BASIC TOOLS....

v) due to loss of some important .dll files your system might shutdown frequently..... but you are fortunate that you are getting error message....and these .dll play mere role....

vi) i would suggest to install some best rated antivirus, spyware( Bit Defender -rated top, AVG, Norton....) after perform full system scan try reinstall your OS or format your system or load OS Freshly....

Thanking you
