Thank you very much for your suggestions
For the cmd sfc, it requires installed CD for XP, if I need to service 100
PCs, I may need to carry 100 XP CDs, do you have any suggestions on how to do
it easiler?
Thank you very much for any suggestions

Eric, what's with the "100 pc's" bit? If they are private-owned pc's
the owners should HAVE their own Win cd's, if it's company pc's the
company should have a group license Win CD.
You trying a con here?

Thank everyone very much for suggestions
In my case, we purchase brandname PCs, which come with one CD for each
computer, therefore, I see many copy of Windows XP CD on shelf.
Thank everyone very much for suggestions
