You did not state what your default notebook resolution is or the mods you are using?

The HSIE mod is also used in GWX and NYGM but these are not compatible with LSH.
The PDF that comes with the mod tells you everything you need to know how this mod works.

Peter, thank you for your reply and clarifications to my questions about other mod. As stated above, my display is 1920 x 1080, which is what I use every day. Following the installation instructions, I only installed the main mod and the widescreen mod and then tried to get the game to load and run; it did, and gave me the error message I quoted in my first post. By deleting the widescreen mod I am able to get the game to run fine, albeit within a squared screen with the black bands on either side as if watching an old style formatted film on a modern 16:9 widescreen. The game seems fully functional that way, but of course I cannot enjoy it as intended by the widescreen mod. I tried each widescreen mod in turn but no luck.

Within the normally functioning squared format display I activated a number of the HSIE features but have jet to play test the game for stability; I was doing this quietly during the night while my wife was sleeping next to me.

An idea occurred to me after I gave up but before I fell asleep: I wonder what would happen if I found and made a copy of that missing .dll file and manually inserted it into the game folder while having a widescreen mod installed? Would the game recognize it and allow it to run. This I might try at a more civilized hour. I have once again awaken early but it is too early in the day for tinkering. I will be leaving for church in a few hours; I wonder if a supplication for help for my game would be considered sacrilegious?

Anyhow, just a thought and it might be worth a try later this afternoon, after all our expected guests are gone home.
