Setting up faxing

G

Guest

I'm trying to set up the faxing component in Windows XP SP2. It wants me to
insert the CD to load the missing files (dll's) but I don't have a CD. Does
anyone know where the appropriate files are located or where I can get them?

If your installation of Windows XP was from a CD, you will be prompted to
insert the CD and may need to browse to the i386 Folder so the installation
routine can find the necessary files. If your installation files are on the
hard drive, you may need to direct the routine to the i386 Folder there. If
you have applied SP1 or SP2, these files may have been moved to a different
folder (ServicePackFiles\i386), and you will need to direct the routine to
that folder.

If your installation was performed by an OEM (original equipment
manufacturer), it will be the responsibility of the OEM to supply those
files. Unfortunately, the installation disks supplied by many OEM's do not
contain the necessary files and you will need to contact the OEM to obtain
them. The fax installation files are not available to download from
Microsoft. More info:

2. Why can't the XP Fax Installation Program find the Installation Files?
