Didn't you get a short command with it? I can't remember it exactly but it contains "reg.ocx" or something. If the old one is fully gone from the system, no restore points or cached copies, then windows may automatically pick up the new one anyway.
Something like this maybe...

If its the dialogue dll mate i dont think you need to register it.Just place it in the windows system/system32 folder
Otherwise mate to register it go to the run>start and and type "regsvr32 filename".

i can't delete, rename or edit the existing one in system32.... it won't let me cause its being used..
i think i found out how to do it by using command prompt... but i'm gonna try it out now..
The one in my system32 folder is damaged somehow.. don't ask... anyway, i've already tried registering it with the command in run.. it never worked.
Yes it did come with a .ocx, i may have to replace that file too

I take it you tried the command:- regsvr32 comdlg32.dll ?
It may be that the dll's are searching for other files that are not available.
