I see a market for someone who can take Linux to the next level.

I am running Xandros Linux (Version 2 ), and there have been some reviews of their Version 3 that claim they are nearly there....a point and click ...away I suppose you could say....

Why not just reformat and install using the original product discs.......see this:

I reformatted just the other day. Once a year reformatting is not the worst idea in the world. I did it mostly because I wanted to make a clean WinXP install with SP2. Prior to that I made a CD disc from my copy of XP that has SP2 slipstreamed into it.


I used this program -SlipStreamer2Beta21- to do the slipstreaming operation. Making the new XP/SP2 CD bootable is a little tricky but not that hard. After installing my new XP/SP2 I was pleasantly surprised to find only 4 Windows updates were needed.

The major factor that keeps me away from Linux and with XP is the cleartype option

I have the mseroes.dll file loaded on my desk top
now how do I get it in place?

[dennisw]

To create a new System Restore Point in Windows XP Home Edition, click Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> System Restore.  When the System Restore Utility opens, click "Create a Restore Point" then click Next.  Enter a name for this Restore Point (for instance, "Before Installing Office XP"), and click Create.  The utility will then take a snapshot of your system so that you can restore to that point sometime in the future.

Copy and paste it into the two folders I mentioned. You will be asked to overwrite the existing mseroes.dll  files.

But before you do so, create a system restore point and make copies of the two (corrupted?) mseroes.dll files.

To easily locate these two files just do a search of your C drive for mseroes.dll

The two places/folders where mseroes.dll is supposed to be and in fact is on my computer ----->

C:\WINDOWS\system32\dllcache

and

C:\Program Files\Outlook Express

"Everyone who owns a computer could send me $10. I would then take that money and create a brand new operating system with internet access for free, email client, and word processor, spreadsheet, and database capabitlities."

Just throw in broadband service too for that $10 and I'll be your first customer!
