wlanapi.dll error after installing Windows XP SP3

Getting error after installing Windows XP SP3!

Error Message

AirGCFG.exe - Entry Point Not Found. The procedure entry point apsGetInterfaceCount could not be located in the dynamic link library wlanapi.dll.

OR

AirGCFG.exe - Entry Point Not Found. The procedure entry point apsSearchInterface could not be located in the dynamic link library wlanapi.dll.

OR

WZCSLDR2.exe - Entry Point Not Found. The procedure entry point apsInitialize could not be located in the dynamic link library wlanapi.dll.

Cause Of This Error

Windows XP SP3 introduces a new .dll file that is named Wlanapi.dll. This file is installed in the %WINDIR%\System32 folder. Certain device driver installations for some third-party wireless network adapters also install a Wlanapi.dll file in the %WINDIR%\System32 folder. If a third-party network adapter file is installed in this folder before you install Windows XP SP3, the Wlanapi.dll file that is associated with the network adapter is replaced by the file from the Windows XP SP3 installation.

Solution

To solve this issue, either download and install the latest device drivers for the wireless network adapter from the wireless network adapter's manufacturer website.

Thanks for the solution. :thumbup1:

It seems to me that Microsoft had added a new version of wlanapi.dll file that conflicts and replaces the third party dll files. :bleh:
