Actually the patch never downloaded ....this was the result of the download:
file C:windows\system\msvcp60.dll is in use & cannot be installed.
So then I went after the dll & the instructions for the dll said to put it
in C:\Windows\system. I saved it in a temporary file & double clicked on it
& tried to extract it in the windows system file. That's when I got the
second message: The process cannot access the file because it is being used
by another process cannot create c:\windows\system\msvcp60.dll
Darryl just said: if not you may have to replace the dll from in dos, not a
dos prompt in windows, but from dos itself. Thank you Darryl, this is
exactly what I think I should do BUT I haven't a clue as to how to do
that. The only time I have ever been in Dos is when a dell tech told me to
do certain things to run a diagnostic. How I got there & out was never
explained to me.
I have the dll waiting to go in...would you please walk me through the
process?

Jan,
Simple question, but maybe it works. You say that you have the patch
downloaded? Do you have it in the correct place?
Have you tried rebooting?

| Well here I am, the queen of errors, back again with yet another problem.
My PSP has lost a few of it's common functions. Went to PSP trouble
shooting & found the answer was in a simple remove a file & download a
patch. Two hours on line downloading this patch and the install was aborted
with this message:
|
| file C:windows\system\msvcp60.dll is in use & cannot be installed. Please
exit all other applications & retry.
|
| Well nothing to my knowledge was running but I used EndItAll & tried
again. Of course I got the same message. It was suggested that I needed to
replace the dll.
| Went on line, found the dll, went to put it in, still EndItAll was active,
and this is the message I received: The process cannot access the file
because it is being used by another process cannot create
c:\windows\system\msvcp60.dll
|
| OK...who is using it? How can I get it to give it up? More importantly
how can I install this dll?
|
| Please help, my hair is falling out by the handfuls!
| Jan
