Contray to what some people think I DID not just restate what was already said. No one mention the stuff about having it look in C:\windows\ or C:\windows\system. Those are two folders that would contain .dll's or .com file or .vxd or any gamot of other exentions that might be needed.

If the OS came preinstalled then the cab files should be in C:\windows\options\cabs\ as has been said.

Very strange that it does not give a browse option. Usually there is a box that has a drop down menu where you can select previous locations people have told windows to look for files. You may be able to type in that box aswell if you dont have a browse.

The three locations I would have it search in order are

C:\windows\options\cabs
C:\windows\system\
C:\windows\

If the first does not work the later two might get the job done but you might have to tell it to look in two different spots. One location might hold the majoirty of the files and the other will end up holding one or two. The later two will only work if the files had previously been installed.
