Red X in Index
Hi,
I posted a question here a few days ago, and got an answer, but now I can't
find it.
I find this website kind of confusing.
Anyway, I'll try again. I'm running XP Home SP2 in dual boot mode with
ME. XP was installed on a new blank hard disk; ME is on the old hard disk.
When I click on Index in Help & Support in XP, all I get is a small red X
in a black box, no list. XP has been installed for only a couple of months,
and I have not moved many programmes from ME. I have been uninstalling them
one by one, to see if one was at fault, but no luck. I have run a virus scan
a couple of times (AVG free) with no result.
I would appreciate any help.

Hi Kennym,
Reinstalling Help and Support Center in Windows XP:
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/rebuildhelp.htm
Restore Help and Support Service
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/regs...lpnsupport.reg

Reboot your machine after the execution of the reg file.

Restore your System if the above didn't help.

HTH,
nass

I'm not sure what you mean by "fully patch" I have installed all of the MS
updates except SP3.

RE: Red X in Index
Hi nass,
1st suggestion: I got as far as the 2nd line in the command prompt, then
got a message saying " The filename, directory name or volume label syntax is
incorrect. 2nd suggestion: After installing, got a message saying 'Windows
cannot find 'helpctr.exe' I restored after both tries, so I'm back where I
started. Maybe I should go back to the very first restore point--would a
point be installed when XP is installed?

RE: Red X in Index


Open run and type in :
sfc /scannow click [OK] and get your XP CD handy you may need to insert it
in.

If that didn't help try to run windows updates and install all security
updates.
