not a valid win32 application
This almost certainly is not an error about missing dependency (DLL) or missing entry point, but an unsupported type of EXE or DLL file.

Either trying to run a 64-Bit EXE on the 32-Bit Windows, trying to load a 64-Bit DLL into a 32-Bit process, or trying to use an EXE (or DLL) that requires a newer versions of Windows on an "outdated" (unsupported) Windows version.

Use a tool like CFF Explorer to check the required OS version of the EXE or DLL file. For Windows XP this should be at most 5.1, as Windows XP equals Windows NT version 5.1.

(Modern compilers/linkers will usually set this to 6.0 or something, because ancient OS is no longer supported in modern tool chains)
