After installing media player 7.1 in Windows98 se and restarting, i can only see the desktop without the icons and windows stops loading. I can only get in safe mode and there a message appears saying "The odbc resource dll (c:\windows\system\odbcint.dll) is a different version than the odbc setup dll (c:\windows\system\odbccp32.dll). You need to reinstall the odbc components to ensure proper operation." Any help?

There was nothing specific about your error in the MS KnowledgeBase, but ODBC is part of the MS MDAC stuff, so

I'd start with this <A HREF="http://download.microsoft.com/download/dasdk/CC/2.7/WIN98MeXP/EN-US/cc.exe" target="_new">http://download.microsoft.com/download/dasdk/CC/2.7/WIN98MeXP/EN-US/cc.exe</A> which is a component checker for all MDAC products.
