    While installing the TSE40 program, I am warned that
    the program cannot replace the following files
    OLEAUT32.dll and STDOLE2.tlb. The files are said to
    have access denied. When I try to change the files
    they are said to be in use by windows. When I try to
    open TSE it tells me that it needs a newer version of
    oleaut32.dll than is on my computer. What can I do?

    Ahhh... Windoze DLL hell, you're not alone! Try booting
    into DOS mode, and replacing these files that way. BTW, if
    you have Windoze NT/2000/XP, then this will not work.

    1.Just unpack the zip file, note which files you need to
    replace.
    2. Make a boot floppy from Windoze (will only work in
    9x/ME).
    3. Reboot the computer using the boot floppy.
    4. Make a backup of the files you ned to replace in
    windows\system (or wherever they are).
    5. Put the new files from the TSE archive in.
    6. Reboot into Windoze and try running TSE again.

    Hope this helps!
