That usually is a good sign that your installation disc is damaged/corrupted.  You may want to obtain a fresh copy.

You need to switch to firefox. you can get it at mozilla.com\n\nThere is no reason to re-install windows.

Depends on the dll and what you're doing. Could be that you're missing something linked or an install went haywire.

Reformat it, and re-install windows, go to your local best buy to get more information, make sure you have a windows disk to re-install it. I reccamend this too, so you can get those files off, and everything else you have installed on it. Go to your local electronic store for more information. \n\nHoped i helped

Pay attention to what you install, first off. However, if you have a PC that already had some stuff on it, you may want to format and reinstall windows. None of those options are good for you? Try installing Norton System Works. It has a process viewer (among many other useful utilities) that explains exactly what programs are running and to what processes they are linked. There may be similar programs out there, but I like NSW.

Try with drivers.com, when the window opens check at the left side; it will show you about computer drivers.

All the other things will stop working if you wipe it clean and start over. However, you should be able to re-install a legitimate copy of Windows over top of the existing one and everything in the registry for the other programs will be kept, and the programs should still work....even if they are counterfeit.\nMine came with XP Home Edition already installed.

You might want to think about reformatting your hard drive and doing a fresh install of the operating system. This is usually a last resort after all other troubleshooting is done. If the install does not work then you might be looking at a hardware problem.

Installing new Windows will (in most cases) require you to install all other software again.\nSo, you need to install this software again over the old version.\n\n\nXLMan

There are a lot of stuff to be said, it could be any:\n- Software Problem:\nError in Windows System Files\n\n- Hardware Problem:\nProcessor over heating\nRAM not working properly\nComputer fans not working properly\nHard Disk Spinning Errror\n\nI recommend trying to repair Windows through the Installation Media Source (the CD) by booting the computer witht the CD, then going into setup mode and choose repair.\n\nOtherwise, try backing up all your valueable data, format the Primary Partition, and reinstall a fresh copy of Windows...\n\nGood Luck

Use a spyware gurad like windows defender and an updated virus scanner. Then Run a full system scan. If this doesn't yield good results, then format your system partion  & re-install windows. Or else run a system restore.

You can put it in your windows&#92;system32 directory and see if that helps.

I know that the quality of MS's error messages is not stellar, but somehow I doubt that's the precise message. Could you copy down the actual text of the message and edit it into your question?\n\nIs it saying that your drive is reporting errors, or is it saying that it is unable to install because ... (some specific reason)?
