Hi Tony
OK....I wanted you to try the information below first, so, let's see if we
can get this to work.
I found these tips at this site, which you might want to make note of for
future reference, as there are a lot of really good tips here that can come
in handy: http://www.onecomputerguy.com/windowsxp_tips.htm
NOW - try this one and see where we get. This gives you a work around for
the problem you said you had with the CD.
Running SFC without a CD ROM
Added 6/9/04
If you run sfc /scannow and get prompted to insert a CD,
there are a couple of changes you might need to make.
Slipstream your copy of WindowsXP with the latest service pack you have
applied.
For detailed instructions on how to do this see:

Once these files are on your hard drive, you can simply make a few registry
changes to point to those locations.
Start Regedit
Go to the follow locations and change the path to wherever you copied the
source files.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\ServicePa
ckSourcePath
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\SourcePat
h
the last one might not be necessary
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SourcePath
If that does not work, try this next:
Yes, it might very well be part of the over all. The 'stop cryptsvc' issue.
You try the information here too.

If you need to replace the mshtmler.dll file, go here and scroll down to
find it and then download it and install. This file may have become
corrupted, if the other things don't work, then try this.

This is the information I have been able to find thus far, so let's see how
we do with this. Let me know how you do.
Hope this helps.
