M.I.53/4:
You are most certainly correct. I corrected the misinformation I originally
provided the OP in a later post.
I had been thinking along lines when we've encountered that "missing
MSVCP60.DLL"
message. In every similar situation (as I recall) the problem we ran into
involved the inability to access this or that program because of the missing
(or corrupt) dll. I can't recall a situation that we encountered where the
system was unbootable because of the missing dll. Although it's obviously
possible as reported by the OP. So I was (mistakenly) thinking of using the
usual Start > Run "sfc /scannow" command that (as I recall) invariably
corrected the problem.
