Hi all, I wonder out there if one of you could tell me how to do a system file check (also known as an SFC)? I'm using windows xp home, and I'm using a Dell inspiron 8100 laptop computer, and the cpu is a 1 gig processor. I have a missing or corrupt file I want to restore called shell.dll. thanks for any help you can provide me step by step.
