MSGR3EN.DL_
Hi Claymore, After I inserted my windows XP home CD and clicked on Install
as you instructed... they asked for me to find MSGR3EN.DL_ and I tried to
browse to where it might be.. but have no clue.. I thought it might be in
the i386 folder but it appeared to not be there.. tried everything else..
but still the search does not find anything.. You certainly gave me a lot
to do to fix this.. and it's very appreciated.. I disabled the indexing
service... and then after that didn't fix it.. I put it back the way it
was... I probably need to do a repair to fix the problem.. that always
makes me nervous.. even though I have the instructions printed out so I
don't make any mistakes and install windows xp again.. instead of repairing
it.. anyway.. thanks for all the input.. I appreciate it... Rainy
Hi,
Search doesn't work or fails
Go to Start => Run and type in - or copy/paste - each of the commands
listed below, one at a time. Hit Enter after each. Note that there is a
single space after regsvr32.
regsvr32 wshom.ocx
regsvr32 jscript.dll
regsvr32 urlmon.dllciadv.msc
regsvr32 vbscript.dll
-------------------------------------------------------
If that doesn't fix the problem, do this:
Go to Start => Run and type in:
%systemroot%\inf {No spaces}
Click OK.
Locate the file Srchasst.inf
..
Right-click the file, and click on Install. You will be asked to insert
your Windows XP installation CD in the drive.
This will reinstall the Search Assistant.
-------------------------------------------------------
One thing you could try is to turn off the file Indexing Service,
especially if you see cisv.exe grabbing a high percentage of cpu. The
data may have become corrupted. Anyway, check if it's enabled either of
these ways:
In the Search window click on 'Search Options'. Click on the 'Indexing
Service' link. If it's enabled, click the radio button 'No, do not
enable...'. Click the 'Advanced' button and in the window that opens,
right-click => All Tasks => Empty Catalog.
or ...
If you can't get access via the Search window, go to Start => Run and
type in "ciadv.msc" {without the quotes}.
In the window that opens, do as above.
Next, Go to Start => Run and type in "services.msc" {without the
quotes}
Locate the Indexing Service. If it's running, Stop it and set it to
Manual or Disabled.
If this doesn't work, you can restart it if you want.
