< Error loading C:\WINDOWS\system32\shell.dll >
So I decided to close my security app and as soon as Comodo was closed, everything loaded fine. I discovered that for some unknown mind-of-its-own reason, Comodo's Defence Plus was blocking these dll's from loading.
But as it COULD have been the driver needing an update, your NVIDIA drivers URL may prove useful to someone else doing a search for help.
Similarly my reply might help if, like mine, their problem has it root in Comodo or another security app like that.
When I first got Comodo to replace all my other defenses, I found it a brilliant application. Then it started blocking all sorts of stuff even telling me that iExlore.exe was malware!!
