So one of the newly compiled programs, and your existing tetris.exe, generate this message, but nothing else does? You might want to pipe the message to a file, then examine the file with a debugger to see if there are any invisible characters just ahead of the . in .dll You can also do a text search of the offending *.exe's for ".dll". (For instance in command prompt 'find /i ".dll" tetris.exe') Then check your disk to see that each mentioned dll actually exists. Once you find which dll is actually missing, restore it from backup. (And if files are randomly disappearing from your computer, you've got other problems to fix, too.)
