Sidewinder 2 FF joystick problems

I have been using this joystick for many years to play CFS3 on my PC running XP home SP3. The problem is that somehow the programmed buttons functions on the joystick have gone back to default. I couldn't manage to reprogrammed them so I uninstalled and reinstalled the software that came with the joystick and when I try to re programme the buttons on recorder button of the game controller under properties a Runtime error message comes up before I get chance to do anything saying
Programme C\windows\system32\RunDII32.exe
This application has requested the runtime to terminate in an unusual way. Please contact the application support team for more information.
The joystick is recognised by windows, its just the button functions I would like to programme. I have tried to find this RunDII32.exe file but cant. Does anybody have any suggestions please.
 
Hello


Rundll32.exe has to be in your c:\windows\system32 folder. If it is not there then you will need to copy it in. You can find it on your XP install disk in the I386 folder. Just copy and paste it from the CD. If it is there already then it may be corrupt. Copy paste and overwrite if prompted

If you don't have your XP install disk post back and let me know

Just an FYI most times when the Rundll32 encounters issues it's because of virus or spyware issues. Make sure you scan your PC and clean it up. You have a good anti virus software?

Cheers

Thanks for your reply.....I managed to find RunDll32.exe a 33kb file in 1386 on my PC but I cant find it on my disk. I can only find a 12kb file called RUNDLL.32.EX_ on the disk which I already have on my PC.
I have up to date AVG free ,Ad Aware and Malwarebytes and they cant find anything wrong.
