I'm no great expert but I think the following is what you might need to do:
Go to control panel
Select Add/remove programmes
Select Add/remove Windows components (on LHS bar)
If the box for Fax is not checked, the check it and hit the go button (can't
remember what it's called!)
Hope that helps.

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.

thank you hal
all my progams where pre-installed
by the coputer store i bought it from.
I only recieved one disk from them (my OEM), and you are right it did not
contain the files i needed.
I searched the whole disk and my entire computer from any kind of fax file
and i found none!
is it possible to order a new disk from microsoft?
thanks again
