Frances,
Can you publish the contents of sysoc.inf somewhere on the web. Or, send it to me via e-mail.

John,
This is most likely caused by a syntax error in Sysoc.inf (have you
modified
it?). Extracting a new copy from XP CD should help.
Insert the Windows XP CD in the drive.
Click Start/Run and type CMD
In the Command Prompt, type this line:
expand X:\i386\sysoc.in_ -r c:\windows\inf
Where X:\ is your CD-ROM drive letter. The above command assumes
Windows is
installed in C:\ drive. If not, change the drive letter / Path
accordingly.
Example: expand H:\i386\sysoc.in_ -r g:\windows\inf
Mr. Ramesh, I am a computer novice and I am having the same problem
with not being able to open my Add/Delete Windows Components.
Unfortunately, my pc came with XP already loaded so I don't have a cd.
Is there any way I can fix this? I think I screwed up my system by
removing some MSM software and taking stuff off that I should have left
on! My error message says 0x2 at line 2088999411, then a pop up box
says msnmsn.info missing. I would appreciate any advice! Thanks.
