That may be because the JNI loader looks for its libraries along the 
path defined by the Java property "java.library.path".

Do a System.out.println(System.getProperty("java.library.path")); just 
before your System.loadLibrary() and see what you get.

I'm not sure what yours is getting set to. Normally, when you start a 
Java program from the (Windows) command line, java.library.path is set 
to your %PATH%, but if some or something has changed in within the 
program, you may need to fix it up.
