Re: Recover a file from Installation Disk
NTDLL.DLL is a windows protected file.
Did you attempt a Repair from the Installation DVD?

Re: Recover a file from Installation Disk
As Mike pointed out, if your installation DVD is not SP1, this will be a
mute point since the repair will not install an older version.

Beyond that, NTDLL.DLL failures are usually a symptom of the program
accessing it:
What program is reporting NTDLL.DLL is faulty?
If it is something like IE7, then you may have a faulty plug-in (e.g.
Flash Player.)
You could determine this by resetting IE7 to defaults and disabling
plug-ins.

The program is Outlook 2000 which I know is not supported by Vista.
However it has been operating flawlessly since Feb 2007 when I installed
Vista. The fault is brand new. Something has changed. I'm trying to
find what changed.

Re: Recover a file from Installation Disk
It may simply be a Windows update that has disabled Outlook 2000
(inadvertantly.) You could try recovering a restore point or uninstalling
updates to find what changed Outlook's response. Since you are using
Ultimate, you could also right-click ntdll.dll and see what shadow copies
have been created and get a date on when a change may have occurred. (Might
narrow your search.)
