Which folder to manually copy the files for Windows File Checker into
%systemroot%\system32\dllcache

[Rick \Nutcase\ Rogers]

Hi,

Please explain better what you are trying to accomplish.

Original system files are usually in an I386 folder, there may be several of
these containing different versions of files that were updated by various
service packs.

My system behave oddly during desktop startup whereby clicking on the
desktop or taskbar sort of hang the window. Dr watson will be activated to
bring out an error dialog, other wise, it got suspended too and killing it
from task manager restore back the desktop.

I tried using sfc /scannow and it prompt me the SP2 CD, but no matter how i
click, the dialog remain prompting me!

Hi,

Ok, it's looking for original system files from the disk. The files included
in SP2 would normally be cached here:

%systemroot%\ServicePackFiles\I386

%systemroot% is usually C:\Windows

To make matters easier, you may want to change the ServicePackSourcePath key
in the registry to match, you'll find it here:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup

But do not include the I386, just use:

C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles

For the original system files, the SourcePath string should match the
location of the I386 folder. If it was installed from a CD, you'll see that
the CD drive letter is there. If installed from an image, you may want to
change it. You'll find more on this here:

Hi,

Go to the Control Panel/Folder Options, and on the View tab, set the options
so you can see hidden and system files. Specifically:

Enable (check) "Display the contents of system folders"
Enable (check) "Show hidden files and folders"
Disable (uncheck): "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)"

I also recommend that you disable (uncheck) "hide extensions for known file
types".

This is a common problem.

[[SYMPTOMS
When you use the System File Checker tool (Sfc.exe) on a Microsoft Windows
XP Home Edition-based computer, you may be prompted to insert one of the
following:
The Windows XP Service Pack 2 CD ]]

See the WORKAROUND here...

You may be prompted to insert a Windows XP Professional CD when you run the
System File Checker tool in Windows XP Home Edition
