I'm glad you agree that it infact IS a nice service pack.
(I understand what you posted was sarcasm.) Not sure what winsrv does or is so not much I can give you as far as info about why it did that. Don't even know where to tell you to start looking. -----Original Message----- hah... i installed SP2 on my machine, go to restart as usual... on loading the blue screen comes up says cannot find file winsrv... played around for a little bit and ended up having to reinstall windows.. nice service pack. . |

SP2 is in what is called a "Public BETA" release. Screw
up everyones systems so they are forced to buy Longhorn when it is released.

That error means the 'winsrv.dat' or 'winsrv.dll' file is missing or
corrupt in the Windows\System32 folder, or more likely that your registry was corrupt to begin with before installing SP2.

Hi,
What winsrv file? The .dll file is legitimate, the .exe version is a well known trojan. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Associate Expert - WindowsXP Expert Zone www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone Windows help - www.rickrogers.org wrote in message ... hah... i installed SP2 on my machine, go to restart as usual... on loading the blue screen comes up says cannot find file winsrv... played around for a little bit and ended up having to reinstall windows.. nice service pack. |
