Missing or damaged VGA.fon. My computer cannot start because of this
I turned on my CPU and and error message that vga.fon is missing or damaged, and so it won't let me log on to Windows. I read that you need the installation CD of Windows XP that came with your CPU. For some reason, my CPU has not included an XP installation CD so what can I do to solve this problem?
haloman54,
If your PC came with a XP disk or recovery disk, you will need to contact the PC manufacturer. Some OEMS will provide support for recovery of replacement for a reasonable price. Once you have a XP disc you can boot mode safe mode with command prompt and run "sfc/scannow" as which can help solve your problem. Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

Missing or damaged VGA.fon
can I use my xp home edition to repair my wifes xp professional on his computer because she has never had xp professional disc
You try to start Windows XP, you see a message similar to the following:
Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\vgaoem.FONYou can try to repair this file by starting Windows Setup using the original Setup CD.
Select 'r' in the first screen to start.If the c:\windows\fonts\vgaoem.fon file is missing, you will see this message.
Despite the fact that the message says: the file is missing in \WINDOWS\SYSTEM, the file is actually missing in the c:\windows\fonts folder, so you can just replace it with the backup copy of the file that is already on the hard drive.
In the following article in Microsoft (cited for reference only), it is said to use the XP Recovery Console to expand the file missing from your installation (Microsoft XP CD
always assumed that you have such a thing) in the c:\windows\system folder:http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315338/en-us
Following the instructions of this article can resolve the startup problem if you happen to have a genuine XP bootable installation CD, but most of the people do not have a genuine XP bootable installation CD and is not really where the font files are supposed to go and it's also not where the vgaoem.fon file is installed on a new install of XP.
In Windows XP, the font files are usually in this folder:
c:\Windows\Fonts
So if I had to replace the vgaoem.fon file, I would put it in the same folder with the rest of the font files. You can resolve the initial error of missing file anyway, but by putting the file in c:\windows\system or c:\windows\fonts - it's up to you.
You don't need a real XP bootable installation CD to replace the file because it is a backup copy of the file already on your hard drive, but do not boot your system on something.
If you do not have a genuine XP bootable installation CD or are not sure what type of bootable CD, you have, you can create a bootable XP
Recovery Console CD (no XP media required) and then replace the file by using the bootable CD, you did.If you need help to create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console, I can tell you how to do this.
After starting in the Console recovery XP either your XP installation CD real bootable XP Recovery Console CD bootable you did, it would be advisable first to check the integrity of your file system by running:
Chkdsk /r
When clean running the chkdsk/r, and then replace the file missing or suspect.
From the C:\WINDOWS of Recovery Console prompt, enter the following command to copy the file:
copy system32\dllcache\vgaoem.fon c:\windows\fonts
Answered in the affirmative if invited to replace or replace the file.
You should see a message that a file has been copied.
Type "exit" at the Recovery Console prompt to restart the system.
Do, or do not. There is no test.

Original title: I am a computer newbie, could someone explain/direct me? Many thanks, Mark
Recently, I received an Apple update normal I-tunes. Have done a little before, never with a problem. This time, it seemed that everything was fine, then at the end (when expects a message "successfully installed", I received an error box with this: APS Daemon.exe - error system, the program cannot start because MSVCR80.dll is missing on your computer.) Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem. "Well, since nothing else seems to work (or helping) and my music files have been backed up, I uninstalled I-Tunes successfully, then attempted to re - install. I had to download the installation of Apple, which was very good. Once again, everything seemed to go smoothly, installation, etc. until it got to the point when he said "Marketing Services". Then, as before - everything stopped and jumped up to the exact same APS Daemon.exe - error box system (with the same message) referencing MSVCR80.dll once again, saying that it is missing and try to reinstall the program. From now on, I don't know exactly what that means (I know, I know) or if it's something someone like I could fix (or even try), or if I should just run down to my local computer store? Never had any problems with the Apple or Windows updates before this one.
Thank you to everyone how wants take a few minutes and help a person who has started working on computers far too late in life!Sincerely, mark HawkHello
