Guest Uncle Ben Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 I'm trying to install some older software application from a CD-R and get the following message get the following error message: "This application has failed to start because ppcload.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." This CD is to install software on a PDA which is connected to the desktop via MS ActiveSync. This is a long-standing set up, have installed dozens of applications over the last few years ... so I know that the connection/partnership works. Has anyone come across something like this? TIA for your help.

I had to un-install the latest version of AS, remove the \Program Files\Microsoft Active Sync and the c:\Program Files\Common Filews\Microsoft Shared\NoteSync Forms directories; and delete files rapi.dll and ceutil.dll from the C:\Windows\System32 directory. Rebootoed and installed ActiveSync 3.8 ...and everything is working like a charm. Thanks for your help!

Sorry if I took so long to get back to this group. I was using Version 4.2 of ActiveSync. I ended up un-installing it and installing v. 3.8 and everything is now working like a charm. Old PDA = Old version of AS. ;-) Thanks!
