Hmm, I had not read the whole MS page but basically you only need to follow the first 2 instructions. I have never had to use those other instructions myself. Remember that if you get flustered just click the Cancel button to get out of where you are. There is nothing to be afraid of when using System File Checker. You It simply goes through your computer checking all the operating system files and replaces those which are corrupt or missing. The need for the CD is so it can get the needed files to install for you. The slight downside is that it takes the computer back to when your particular CD was created which means you will be behind on security updates and possibly a service pack. No big deal there either, you simply go to the windows update site and the computer grabs whatever it needs. You are doing nothing wrong. Who knows why those files went missing. Perhaps/probably it was due to the power outage. You can of course extract and install each of those files if you wish to avoid using SFC. Follow the instructions here to do that for each file. You do not have to do them all at one time. Try one, see how it goes then do others as you feel up to the task.

Hi mst, I know it is after Christmas, but here is my two cents worth. My suggestion is that you stick with PSP...I use version 10, but that is up to you (I do not know what PSP X3 Ultimate is, but it sounds good)...the learning curves on each are steep , but it looks like you know something about PSP. I don't know what happened to this forum either - got great advice here in the past, and Urlee was one of the ones who always helped me....well, these things come and go.... Elly
