I have had this issue for a while now, everytime I reboot my Laptop and after couple minutes it prompts two RunDLL Dialogue box saying "There was a problem starting C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\System\SysMenu.dll. The specified module could not be found. after click ok it just goes away. I tried couple other ideas from different websites but still couldn't resolve it. any suggestions from somebody who ran into this issue in past would be very helpful. Thank you in advance.

right click start button
choose command prompt (admin)
type SFC /scannow and press enter
once its run, copy/paste this command into same window:
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

SFC fixes system files, DISM fixes the files SFC uses to fix files, so if SFC failed to fix files first time, rerun after dism
 
maybe some tips from here

some dll [Dynamic-link library ] are part of windows os and most come in when you install a program or game . so may be corrupted or missing or some program did not install or uninstall fully or may of replaced it with one that's not compatible with another program that uses it .

this could be tough to weed out

as well as what colif said may try your windows OS disk and run a repair from it to check its files ??

you may can check the reliability monitor and trace back in time to where it started and see what was installed changed removed just ahead of the issue if it shows it
