RE: SFC demands XP Pro CD2 with XP Home installation
In cmd try:Sfc /Scannow REVERT or /REVERT
Also,the OS hardware (cdrw or cdrom) by default is D: If you add a hd,the
hd usually gets set to D: & the cdrom is E: or other.However the registry
still
has cdrom as D: This needs to be edited in the registry-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/
software/microsoft/windows,open sourcepath,edit the cdrom listings.Also,even
if Sfc asks for SP2 cd,it'll still run as it should,even with the pop-ups.
