Hi....I'm sending you this message in relationship to something you posted on annoyances.org
almost 4 years ago.
As you can see by the quoted text below... this issue has to do with "incorrectly
copied files" when clean installing windows xp. With the exception of a few files,
the same files consistently display this error; important ones like ntfs.sys and
query.dll. I read through the other posts in the thread and tried burning a cd in
DOS (even though your post said it didn't matter)...and you were right. It didn't.
So I was just wondering if you ever reached a conclusion with your testing, and found
a solution to this problem. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
