hey thanks bro i did a little more research and figured out that initpki.dll doesnt exist in vista and thats what the error is from Here is a list of existing ones for vista that i refreshed just for the heck of it... softpu.dll wintrust.dll rsaenh.dll mssip32.dll cryptdlg.dll dssenh.dll i think thats it and here are some that i tried that didnt work initpki.dll gpkcsp.dll slbcsp.dll sccbase.dll i guess those are for xp and not for vista.
