Default SFC /Scannow results in "Insert your Windows XP Professional C

Ok, I performed steps 1 and 2 as instructed in the doc. However, Windows
still returned the same error message eventhough the source now point to c:\
and I copied the I386 folder to my c:\ drive. I wonder if the correct source
path was changed relative to what was recommended at the web link.?

Hi John,
Try this link for your issue:

About the Path you can select this or browse to it:
C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386
Make sure this machine is malware free?.

problem. Thanks again for you assistance.

Then ignore the message and click [OK] and hopefully the pointer will pick
up the CD path and repair the DLLs.

Hi, Nass Thanks for responding, however, the OEM Disk I'm using has SP2 on it
and when I get the message above it does not offer the ability to redirect it.

At the time the above message appears I have a Full version OEM Windows XP
Professional CD in my drive, however, it will not accept it and indicates
that it is the wrong CD. I have about 5 dll's that need repair and do not
know how to proceed. Please Advise. Thanks in advance.

Yes, it will ask you about a second CD because your CD just have the XP SP1
may be, try to locate the SP2 folders in your directories and point the
pointer to it and click [OK] for the System File Checker to repair the DLL.
