Paula, I wonder if he has tried Error Checking. Go to C Drive, Properties,
Tools, Error checking and also check the box that says fix errors. Or
System File Checker by going to Start, Run, and entering sfc /scannow. It
will ask for your original disk.
I have not done either of these for a while so hope I have directed you
properly. If I have not, I am sure one of the Mods will set us straight!
Sandi
P.S. Oops, I just noticed that he has WinVista. I am using WinXP Pro. May
be different file checking procedures.
