Track a program that is loading

Is there a file that will show all files being accesed as it is being
loaded? I am getting an error when I try to load a new program in or
uninstall one. It says shell32.dll is either missing or corrupt. It is in
C:\windows\windows32\shell32.dll. I have an other computer much the same as
the one I'm haveing this problem with, checked the file in that computer and
the shell32.dll file is the same, ver,size,date. I put this file in place of
the original and tried to install a program, same error message. So as I see
it it's not the shell file thats bad,but maybe a file calling the shell file
is either messed up or missing. What do you think?
Any help would be appreciated.
