Not sure if this is the right forum, does anyone know where there is a list of CLSIDs for windows components and what they correspond too? I have been looking but can't find anything but extensions and spyware.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI uninstaled some windows components and it turns out that I need them and have not been able to reinstall them. I have been trying to reinstall the advanced features in my sounds and audio devices. Since I removed that feature when I play a DVD no my computer the sound will not get very loud. I am having no problem with other videos just DVD's. But I have also tried reinstalling games and other features and they will not install either.
When trying to install I use the Windows Installation CD and the installation seems to go fine. I don't get any error message, so I'm not sure what the problem is. I also tried the Add/Remove Programs feature in the control panel and got the same results.
Whenever I try to get to the add/remove windows components menu in add/remove programs, it gives me this error message:Setup was unable to open information file comnt5.inf.Contact your system administrator. The specific error code is 0x2 at line 2088999411.The application could not be initialized.
View 10 Replies View RelatedLast night I was trying to remove some unneeded Windows components that I thought were slowing my system down. I went into "Add/Delete Programs", and then "Add/Remove Windows components". I mis-interpretedd the prompts and ended up deleting everything except what I wanted to. When I tried to add the functions back it asks for my Windows CD. It's been a long time since I installed windows and I find that I can't locate the CD. Any idea how I might be able to restore my system. At the moment I no longer have a working internet connection

I recently tried reinstalling windows 2000 thinking it would maybe help my computer. I ran the windows 2000 disk and chose the first option(the one where it doesnt clean out all my files). Now during "registering components" in the installation the loading bar seems to make no progress. I've left it on for a couple days now and it has shown no progress. I've tried restarting my comp but then it restarts the windows 2000 installation again and then the same problem

View 3 Replies View RelatedOutlook Express folder list and Contacts list are not showing. I've walked her through the process of clicking on View at the top of the Outlook Express Interface and setting the Layout items so that her Contacts and Folder list should be on the screen, but they are not. I've tried everything I can think of to rectify the situation and I've run out of options. The way it is without her folders list she cannot access her deleted folder and her sent folder and cannot delete anything from those folders. Is there anything else I can do to bring up those her contacts list and her folders list?

View 4 Replies View RelatedWhen trying to remove Windows Messenger, I made a mess of the Add/Remove Windows Components section of Add/Remove Programs from the Control Panel. Instructions are very confusing, as Windows tells you in order to add/remove the various components, either check or uncheck the box. Not knowing if I should check or uncheck, I tried both, and in the process removed numerous if not all the components.
I managed to get Internet Explorer and Outlook Express back. I honestly do not remember how I did this as I was in a panic state. Meanwhile, I lost MSPaint. And, I'm worried about the other components, like Indexing Service, Networking Services, etc. in order to reinstall components that may or may not be missing, do I simply CHECK the boxes, Accessories and Utilities is NOT checked. I'm assuming that's the reason for why MSPAINT disappeared.
I am completely unable to generate ANY interest in this, and am baffled as to why, so maybe I can get some help here. how to actually get XP to recognize the checkboxes. As far as I can tell, this is display only(?). I'm trying to get it to work and suspect it may have something to do with the modes line in each INF

View 1 Replies View RelatedI ourchased this E-machines from a pawn shop about 2 months ago. Its about 6 years old. It's using Windows XP Home. I've had steady problems since day 1.
First, I cannot restore. It has no disc and Gateway will not let me buy a recovery disc, because the system is not in warranty. Second, I just bought a printer. I can't install the printer, because the Wizard keeps telling me the Print Spool isn't working. I can't turn it on. I go into MSconfig and it is checked, but it won't run.I also keep getting a window telling me some program is missing a dll. paretlogic/dll? I have no idea what the previous owner did to the thing and I can't even restore it to fix it. I've run a reg cleaner and that doesn't help either. What next? I just wanna use my printer.
In the add/remove window the fonts identifying, components, config-uration and add a program are gone. These are located on the left side of the window, the rest of the window does have fonts.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have four legal copies of Windows XP, two Home and two Professional.Whenever I need to reinstall onto a new computer or a repaired system, it is now a two-step process that takes almost three hours:Perform the reinstall,Apply the patch to SP2.Microsoft Support wants $30 + tax/shipping to send me replacement CDs that have SP2 on them, and before I bite that bullet, I am wondering if there is a more creative solution. Is there any way to create an SP2 CD from the combined components of an original CD and the components of the downloaded patch? Any other solutions or paths to take to resolve this? I imagine this has been a source of discussion for some time, although a Google search did not turn up anything, perhaps owing to my uncertainty over which keywords to use.
