Default zlib1.dll is missing ERROR

I followed the server guide posted here on EQEmu located on the homepage left side links.

Everything works just as it's explained in the setup guide until I get to the start your server all the way at the bottom of the guide.

When I run my start.bat file, the terminals:

world.exe
queryserv.exe
ucs.exe
eqlaunch.exe

open up with a "System Error" pop up for each terminal that reads:

"The program can't start because zlib.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."

I've done several searches on the forums for this issue for:

zlib error
zlib,dll error
zlib.dll is missing
etc...

I followed the instructions that I could find on the issue such as:

reinstalling everything
copying zlib.dll into windows32
and
creating c\zlib and copying the zlib files to that file


Do I need to re-compile everything after I've done the previous stated instructions? or Is there something else I'm missing?

On a side note. I tried the Akka's PEQ Server Repack and I started a server just fine, created a char, and logged in. I had errors from there, but the server started with no zlib errors.

Any help is appreciated.
