WindowBlinds 5 and RunDll32

from Stardock Forums
I have installed the WindowBlinds 5 on an XP machine with SP1 and it's updates. I use a program to call rundll32 user32.dll,LockWorkStation to automatically lock my machine. After the install of WindowBlinds 5, I now get the following error when trying to run this line of code:
Run a DLL as an App has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvience.

Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.

Install SP2? Not an option here chummie... Tried it twice and it completely screwed my machine up both times. Add to that the fact I'm on dial up... Not bloody likely!

SP2 machines and pre-SP2 machines are set-up very differently. If you are experiencing problems on a pre-SP2 machine and no one else is with their updated systems, chances are that updating your system will fix the issue. (Not to mention all the other issues SP2 fixes, anyway)

A while back Microsoft was shipping free SP2 cds to anybody that ordered, but it looks like that might be unavailable now. Any local computer repair store should have a copy of the cd. You might also have luck here (assuming you're in the US/Canada):

Unfortunately I'm in the UK so not an option.

No worries- hopefully you'll iron it out soon. It's a beta- I'm not complaining (much )...

Sorry to keep you waiting, though we do appreciate your patience. Beta releases, as you probably already know, are traditionally for testing/debugging. Though most companies keep beta releases closed within company borders, Stardock would rather extend those borders to include everyone interested. After all, would we be without you people??
