FAX COMPLETELY MISSING
Toshiba Pilot, SP3, XP Pro.
I hadn't used the fax in a few months and when I tried, error message of "could not connect to the fax server"... I deleted the fax from the printer options thinking it would re-install itself. No. It did not come back. So I have re-downloaded and re-=installed SP3 4 or 5 times. When I try to set up the fax it reports it can't "find" the list of fx---.dll's I've tried to look for them in the i386 file. I've decompressed them from the SP storage. Now the message is telling me to re-load from the XP disc, which is in another location. Anything I can do? what caused it?

So which part of it did you try? If you had applied SP's after the initial
installation but before you tried the reinstallation your problem could be this one: http://support.microsoft.com/?id=884018 - You cannot add a Windows component in Windows XP -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "WILDMAN2FL" wrote in message ... i HAD ACTUALLY READ THAT AND TRIED IT.
