Whjen I click on Start/Control Panel/Add-Remove/Setup Tab I get a blank "component
list". I'm guessing I have a missing file but can't find/figure out which one where
this installed component list would be stored. I have an older back up that probably
has this file on it that I would like to restore (if I knew it's name). I hate restoring
the entire windows as it would change so many settings etc. Does anyone know the
name of the file I am looking for? Thanks in advance!
Usually you can run the Win98 CD and it will give you the option of re-installing
those files.
One other option is to go to START RUN and type SFC.
This will run the system file checker and may allow you to reload a damaged file.
