Re: Symbol file missing...



Things are looking up...
Uninstalled Winamp, and deleted all it's remaining folders, and reinstalled
with the classic skin, and it run errorless!
Did a reinstall of my Office 2003 too, and now I can run Outlook without
problems.
Can these symbol files be reestablished by reinstalling all the software
having problem with the symbol files?
