  I think that your McAfee is what is messing things for you...  For some reason, he seems to think that some of the XP files are threats and quarantines (deletes effectively) them.

• Windows File Protection dialogue Windows 2003 Server

  I got an error of Windows on Windows Server 2003 File Protection. The dialog box asks for Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition CD-ROM. I didn't have one, so I downloaded a version zipped our site of Volume License, but he doesn't like it.

  The server came pre-installed Dell about 4 years ago but all the software is on the site of volume license that I have access to.
  There is no entry in the newspapers of the events for that. I restarted the server after execution of critical patches from Microsoft and got this dialog box when I logged in.
  I also looked through all the logs at startup time and I can't find anything about the dialog box.
  Any ideas on what I can do? I didn't cancel the dialog box again, and the server seems to work very well.

• Message for the protection of Windows file at startup

  Every time at startup, I get a message that says: (windows file protection) Please wait while Windows checks that protected files are intact and in the original versions out there, then after a few minutes an other popes of dialog box appears that says, the files that are required for windows to run correctly must be copyed in the DLL cache.

• File protection Windows keeps asking me to reload SP3 disk and something on the DLL Cache...

  I downloaded the Windows XP Service Pack 3, just today, thinking that it would help the difficulty of "windows file protection" window continues to display up to

  whenever I connect and the office, icons, etc... then, after about a minute or two, it asks me to "recharge the cd" and something to

  do with the DLL Cache... I do not have the disk, and the download does not solve the problem... I think about a month or two ago I accidentally

  deleted some windows files that are needed to solve this problem... I'm not a computer genius, but I was not able to understand

  How to solve this problem... I did a system restore when the question first happened w / in a week or two, and that has not helped... what should I do to fix the windows

  missing files...

  God help us all...

  If you installed SP3 (it's a good thing) and do not a CD bootable XP installation genuine with XP on it, running sfc/scannow will not help you and he will complain - a lot.   Sometimes, when he starts to complain, it is difficult to stop.  This does not mean that anything is wrong with your system if necessarily.

  It is unlikely for the typical poster in the MS Answers forums with the system store bought to have a XP installation CD everything--much less one with SP3 already on it.  Why MSE suggest things?

  Still no takers?  ---->>

  If you have an XP installation CD bootable real of a plu SP, you can make a new XP installation CD with SP3 on it by a process called "slipstreaming" (sorry - there is no KB article for the Ministry of Education to post on how to do it).

  Here's how to use the SFC command

  the sfc/scannow command.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

  1. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally madeprograms,Accessories, right-clickguest, and then clickrun as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or clickallow.
  2. Type the following command and press ENTER:
     sfc/scannow

     The sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions

  The program SFC.exe writes the details of each operation audit and each repair operation in the CBS.log file. Each SFC.exe program entry in this file has a [SR] tag. The CBS.log file is located in % windir%\Logs\CBS.
