Re: SYSTEM RESTORE DLL Error Won't Load at all

SR.INF IS MISSING ALSO SRFRAME.MMF

I have checked view hidden files- I've triple checked that so that can't be
the problem. I've been to the URL below and that's where I'm stuck. I
simply can't find the files on my machine nor the SP2 CD which I complety
reinstalled this morning. Can I get them from some where else? I about
ready to do a complete rebuild.

That's because extensions are hidden.

Open Control Panel - Folder Options - View tab, select "Show hidden
files and folders" and uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types",
click OK.
Open Windows Explorer and navigate to the windows\inf folder.

Will,

I checked that - It's not in that folder either. In fact sr(.inf) is
not
there only sr and it says it's a system file (no extension). It could
be I'm
missing sr.inf as well - my mistake. Any other ideas?

Hi

Try running the sr.inf file from the windows\inf folder instead of
the i386
one. The srframe.mmf file should be in the windows\system32\restore
folder.

HI All

Iv'e tried all morning and can get this fixed. When attempting to
click
on System Restore I get the error box : RUNDLL
An exception occurred while trying to run
"G:\WINDOWS\system32\shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL
"G:\WINDOWS\system32\sysdm.cpl","System"

I have reinstalled SP 2 and have also tryied to run sr.inf as
suggested
but files are missing. I find sr.inf on the i386 directory for SP2
but then
it can't find srframe.mmf and I can't find this any where so now
I'm really lost.

Can Anyone help me out?
Thanks - Mike
