re: missing HIMEN.SYS file, no icons Thursday, March 1, 2007 at 5:56 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Rich Kurtz (12246 messages posted) If all else fails, you can create a new XP CD slipstreamed with SP2 and do a Repair Install, see if that fixes it. You'll need a system that has a CD burner and your XP CD. The simplest way to create a Bootable Windows XP Pro or Home Installation CD Slipstreamed with SP2 is to use Autostreamer. You point to your XP Pro CD, the SP2 Service Pack .exe file, give it a path to write the .iso file to and off it goes. In 5 or 10 minutes you have a .iso file that you can burn to CD with almost any CD burner program you want to use. I used Roxio 7. Then you install using the new CD. Here is the link to Autostreamer: http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/System-Tweak/Autostreamer.shtml You can download the SP2 .exe here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=049C9DBE-3B8E-4F30-8245-9E368D3CDB5A&displaylang=en How to do a Repair Install Written in response to: missing HIMEN.SYS file, no icons (picklelake1: Wednesday, February 28, 2007 at 10:44 am) There are presently no replies to this message.
