CheckIt is a nice HARDWARE test program.  But your client has SOFTWARE
problems.  You have been looking in the wrong direction.

"...missing xxxx.dll...."  means that one or more files have been
deleted from the hard disk (or possibly just moved to a different
folder) in your particular case it means the file veg.dll is lost.

"...illegal operation...." means there is a software conflict.

It sounds as if someone has tried to do some "back-door housekeeping"
and lots of needed files were removed or moved around.

Try using scandisk to correct the problems but if 45 different programs
are messed up, then it looks like it's time to strip 'er down and start
all over.
