- Finally sorted it out. Decided to do an upgrade install over Me instead of full install. Threw caution to the winds and continued without missing file. Xp seemed to work OK. later when installing Sp1 Guess which file turned up in it??? ( lucky I was watching at the time ). Not sure if file was in Sp1 anyway or if it's scan of my Xp files noticed it was missing & so it included the file.

Anyway thanks for the help & suggestions, the bottom line is I learned heaps in the process.

Matt.
