In Windows Xp Help and Support Center, I can't see some
of the icons on the help pages, all I get are red X's.
For example, when using the Control Panel applet and
selecting User Accounts; when I click on the Learn about
links, such as "Switching users", I get run-time error
messages indicating that an object is expected. Then I
see red X's instead of icons.
I tried reinstalling the help by performing the following
below. But it did not work. I also looked at Kelly's
Korner website but did not see the applicable link to
correct just this problem.
What is the proper fix and why do I have this problem?
Thanks

Step I: End the Help and Support services if they run in
the background.
1. Click Start, click Run and type "taskmgr"(without
quotes). Click OK.
This opens Task Manager.
2. Click the Process tab. Stop all of the following
processing if running:
helpsvc.exe
helphost.exe
helpctr.exe
Step II: Reinstall Help and Support:
1. Click Start, click Run and type "cmd" (without
quotes).
Click OK. This
opens Command Prompt.
2. In Command Prompt, type the following command lines:
(Press Enter after
each
line.)
net stop helpsvc
cd /d %windir%\pchealth\helpctr
rd packagestore /s /q
rd installedskus /s /q
cd binaries
start /w helpsvc /svchost netsvcs /regserver /install
start /w helpsvc /register
