Replacing Imageres.dll
Mar 8, 2009
Hello. A little while ago i downloaded a program called windowsblinds to change the look of my computer. After installing it and changing the theme some of my icons went missing. after doing some looking into it i think the problem lies in icons missing from the imageres.dll directory. so i got a copy of my friends who uses the same version of windows, but i cant move and replace because the old on is in use. So i tried renaming is and i can move it fine, but when i go to put the new one in i need to be admin and when i move or rename the old one i lose my admin controls... this is getting awful fustrating and i think im just going to reformat if i dont get it fixed within a couple days... Can someone please help. I just dont want to go through teh hassle of reformating.

Recently I downloaded an icon pack. Well, it turns out I didn't like it, so I tried to change my icons back to the default icons. The problem is that imageres.dll (What I assume to be the vista icons) doesn't have any icons in it anymore. SHELL32.dll is still full, but I am not running XP. So, does anybody have a replacement imageres.dll that I could download? I googled it, but I don't trust any of the sites it turned up. If I can't install another imageres.dll is there another way to fix my problem?

I have a dual boot system - XP on the boot drive and Vista on a slave drive. The boot drive is failing (clicking on boot and often preventing the computer from passing the bios splash screen). The Vista install modified the boot header on the XP boot drive. This means that I cannot just buy a new boot drive and install XP on it because the boot information allowing for dual boot will need to be re-written to it. How do I do this?
Is it possible for me to make a backup of the dual boot information installed by Vista so that when I replace the boot drive I can copy at least some parts of the information to the boot drive? Will I have to reinstall both XP and Vista on the slave drive? It has taken me ages to get a stable Vista install on the legacy mobo and I have finally managed it - I wouldn't want to reinstall Vista from scratch
just because the boot drive which contains XP and the dual boot information is dying.

Accidentally deleted this folder from C:, and tho I have the files for it on D: (the green 'documents' folder), I cannot access them by clicking start/documents.
How do I fix this blunder ?
Also, probably a post here somewhere, but I tried to do a system restore in the hope that would fix it, but have no restore points...thought this was done automatically?

I have to replace an elderly computer running Windows 98. I also have a second machine running XP Home. Is the Vista operating system now as stable as XP. I run several older applications including Quicken 2000, Quicken is no longer supported in the UK. Will I definitely have to to upgrade all older software or should will they work with Vista. I don't want to upgrade software particularly everything I run does what I want.

Just recently got an Intel Q6600 Quad core, just going to do a straight swop with an Intel dual core Q6320, Mine is a triple Boot system, will this destroy all systems, and mean a re-install of everything.
