XP - MAPI32.DLL is corrupt or the wrong version

Problem: On XP, when starting Outlook 2003, there is MAPI32 error message

Error message is the same as on Vista:
Cannot start Microsoft Office Outlook. MAPI32.DLL is corrupt or the wrong version. This could have been caused by installing other messaging sofware. Please reinstall Outlook.

Microsoft Office Language Pack 2007 should be deinstalled. And then MAPI32.DLL should be renamed the same as in Vista

Vista - MAPI32.DLL is corrupt or the wrong version


Problem: Although Office 2007 is deinstalled, there is an error message when starting Outlook 2003 (On Vista)


Error message is:

Cannot start Microsoft Office Outlook. MAPI32.DLL is corrupt or the wrong version. This could have been caused by installing other messaging sofware. Please reinstall Outlook.


Reinstalling Outlook 2003 has not helped. This has:

Rename the file MSMAPI32.DLL

It is located here:

Program Files\Common Files\System\MSMAPI\1033

(for some reason, search won't find it)

Trust relationship between workstation and domain error

Problem: When user log in to domain, error "wrong time" appears

And when it's disjoined from domain, error "Trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed" appears and user cannot be added back to domain. Problem was in this case with computer time - it was set in a wrong year (and also minutes were not the same as PC next to it - 5 minutes difference). And once the time was corrected, pc had to be disjoined-joined all over again in order to recognize user.
