Just making sure all versions of ediabias are closed before doing the install did permit the api32.dll file to be installed correctly.

So in short:
* check that api32.dll is in ediabias/bin (if it is, you have a PATH problem, somebody already told you)
If it is not there:
* Make sure all ediabias is off (ctrl-alt-del, task manager: ediabias should not appear in the process list)
* uninstall ediabias
* Make sure all ediabias is off again (for good measure)
* install ediabias
* check that api32.dll is now in ediabias/bin


The api32.dll file is specific for a particular version of ediabias (I tried at some point to use the api32.dll from ediabias 6.3 into 6.7, it failed with esoteric errors later down the line). Also, don't install random .dll from the internet, they are oftnn infecting you with virus.

How did you Install EDIABAS? i can't find an installation file for it that i can run that would install it. the ones i find on the internet is just a folder that i can throw in C drive. is there an actual setup.exe file that i can run to install it?
