Load PNG Images using SDL2.0.3

I keep getting this error whenever I try to load a PNG image using SDL2.0.3 and visual studio 2012. 

The procedure entry point inflateReset2 could not be located in the dynamic link library zlib1.dll error

I have placed the slib1.dll file in the same directory as the .exe, file of my project. I also add it in System32 folder in my windows directory. I want to understand what does this error mean, and how to handle it. Thanks in advance! P.S. The .pmb images work fine

After digging more, I found that the version of the slib1.dll in my windows system32 directory is different from the one I copied to my project folder. After replacing the one in the project with the same one from system32 folder, it worked fine. I found this thread on a similar problem really helpful it states that: "Procedure entry points errors usually mean: you compiled your project against a library version x, and when running the program, it uses a library.dll version y, and version y does not define library::Destroy()"
