When I try to run windows xp defrag it comes up with the following message:

Cannot open this file:

dfrg.msc

This seems to be the case with several other .msc programs

what can I do ?

Thanks

Sometimes a program, bad driver or conflicts that destroy or corrupt files will necessitate a reinstallation. WinXP will replace damaged or corrupted files without disturbing your data or registry settings so that these will still be available to you.

1. Boot from the WinXP CD
2. Select set up WinXP(ENTER)
3. Windows will find an existing copy of itself and give you the option to repair the highlighted installation
4. WinXP will copy the necessary files to your HD and install

Many thanks

Thats useful to know as I haven't tried that before.

I actually managed to get it working by using system restore from the previous day.

Thanks again
