Hi Frosty :)

msxml.dll will need to be extracted from your wind_13.cab file... this is located on your hard drive at c:\windows\options\install

if you want the how to's of extracting you might want to check out [THIS POST] (http://www.cybertechhelp.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=19&t=000046)

good luck with the replacement :)

Hi
Well Kaz that didn't work. I am thinking I might try reinstalling windows over itself to see if that works. But before I do that any other ideas. I sure miss system file checker from 98. Like I said it is just a pain in the a$$.

well that's a blow :(

msxml is renowned for being the help center culprit when it's either missing or corrupt... replacing the file should have done the trick... my thoughts are minimal :rolleyes: apart from 'maybe' the dll that's located in the install directory is corrupt :confused: :confused: you could try taking the file from the cd instead???
