How Do You Restore System Files To Windows XP?
When you need to restore the XP system files, you can perform a system file check using a utility built in to the operating system. This utility scans all of the system files on the computer for corruption and – if necessary – replaces them with fully-functional files from your XP CD. Click “Start” and open “All Programs.” Open “Accessories” and click on “Command Prompt.” Place the XP CD in your computer. Type “sfc /scannow” into the command prompt, without quotes, and press “Enter.” Wait while the system file checker checks and replaces the XP system files as necessary. Restart your computer and remove the XP CD once the checking process finishes.
