Is this with Steam? Most people with this problem solved it with an update or complete uninstall/reinstall.

well, it was trying to load a .dll file and failed. I would guess the file is corrupted or for the wrong architecture type or the setup registration for the .dll was not run.

if you know the .dll name you can run cmd.exe as and then the
regsvr32.exe c:\thePathToTheDLL\mydllfilename.dll

(you might have to search for the .dll and make sure you pick the correct type (32 bit or 64 bit))
