SFC /Scannow results in "Insert your Windows XP Professional C
Good Morning Nass, to answer your question, The reason I felt the need to run
the SFC program was due to my Laptop "Blue Screening" after the installation of HP Software for my new Photosmart Printer C7180, I have tried everything to prevent my system from crashing including contacting HP for support and they recommended that I resolve these DLL problems. Once resolved, they felt that there software should not cause any problems. I find it hard to believe that these un-identified DLL's could be the exact ones used by there software, but none the less I thought there was no harm in getting them resolved anyway. To answer you second question, Yes I completely checked my machine for spyware utilizing Spysweeper by Webroot as well as Counterspy. Also, I checked for viruses using McAfee with the lastest definitions, so I believe my machine is clean. Also, since I have Explorer 7 installed, it's going to me messy doing the Repair Installation. I must find a way to identify these problem dlls via a log or trace and replace mannually from the I386 folder on the CD the problem files on the drive. Thanks in advance! -- John R.

Hi John,
Yes you need to be careful if you have IE7 in doing a Repair/Install, since your CD will have IE6 or pre-IE6 (5.5) version you may have problems doing the Repair install. If you can pin point these DLLs may we can help, and better place to start tracing this issue is the Event viewer, if it applications it will show, if it hardware it will show in the log. Try the System File checker (SFC) again but also try to change the Registry to point to the CD instead of the C:\ and see if it will mange to repair the DLLs. HTH. Good luck. Let us know.

SFC /Scannow results in "Insert your Windows XP Professional C
am sure just trying to help here, because I was stumbling over this
exact issue a few mos.ago. http://www.updatexp.com/scannow-sfc.html recap that is truly important: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\Setup You will see various entries here on the right hand side. The one we want is called: SourcePath --------------------- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SourcePath -------------------- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\Setup \ServicePackSourcePath This should be pointing to the location C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles (assuming C:\ is the boot drive.) ------------------------------------------------------- |
