  When I try to install my windows service pack 2, it will feature do then to halfway through it comes up saying cannot copy file, then it cannot copy the name of the file appears as:

  I was afraid you were going to say that. WinXP SP2 to SP3, should be installed years ago. As it wasn't, you can't possible have been running an application fully functional antivirus for recent years. Here's what you do now:

  Backup of personal data (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then do a format and clean install of Windows.  Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) won't fix this!

• Problem after installing Windows Service Pack 3 on Windows XP Home edition error Media pc: files which are required for Windows to run properly have been replaced by unknown...

  Original title: problem after installing Windows Service Pack 3 on Windows XP Home Media edition pc

  My pc runs Windows XP Home Media edition.  I installed Windows Service Pack 3 successfully, or so I thought. Whenever I turn on my pc a box opens indicating "files which are required for Windows to run properly have been replaced by unrecognized versions."  To maintain the stability of the system.  Windows must restore the original versions of these files.  Install your Windows XP Professional CD2.  I don't have any Windows XP Professional CD that I use the Home Media Edition. If I press Cancel repeatedly, the window disappears to return with the same information, but ask me to install Windows XP Professional CD3.  How can I stop this happening?

  Hello

  Step 1: I suggest you perform the SFC scan on the computer and check.

  SFC tool scans system files and replaces incorrect versions of system files by using the correct versions.

  To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

  1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.
  2. right click on cmd in the list programs and then click Run as administrator.
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue
  3. at the command prompt, type the following line and press ENTER:

  sfc/scannow

  Try to re - install ZoneAlarm on laptop, BUT it tells me that I must upgrade to the Microsoft Windows Service Pack 1 (SP1) to do this... I am running Windows Vista and when I click on windows update it works for literally hours without anything happeneing.

  Zone Alarm has a key valid license - but for some strange reason, he will not have, so I had to uninstall and reinstall ZoneAlarm - he tells me that I need this update - who will not come?

  Note: Windows Firewall is turned on right now and when I look at 'exceptions' does not offer updates of windows as part of the selection list.

  Please, any advice on this will be greatly appreciated.

• Windows Service Pack 3 models breaks

  I have recently installed Windows Service Pack 3. I have a few websites that use templates... Now when I change the template and update pages none of the pages updated... What's wrong?

  Reinstalled Dreamweaver and got it works...

  Before installing Service Pack 3 from Windows I had to run a Microsoft patch subinacl.exe because I was getting "access denied"... http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/949377
  Maybe this is what screwed up my installation of dreamweaver...

  Also painfully discovered that when reinstalling Dreamweaver, you must have the installation files in the correct directory it is initially installed in otherwise you get a message "insert media"...

  Also after reinstalling dreamweaver had to rename C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Adobe\Dreamweaver 9\Configuration\WinFileCache-AD76BB20.dat and then re enable Extension extensions manager otherwise became errors Java Script from Dreamweaver and opening files.

  Thanks for your help to solve this problem, it is greatly appreciated.
