Re: Two Problems

I see msgr3en.dll in
C:\WINDOWS\srchasst
and
C:\WINDOWS\system32\dllcache

I have two other msgr3en.dll files, but they are related to MS Works and MS
Word.

There should be a compressed version of msgr3en.dll on the XP CD.
MSGR3EN.DL_ in the \I386 folder. You should be able to expand MSGR3EN.DL_
to C:\WINDOWS\srchasst.

See if you have a c:\windows\i386 folder, if yes....
If prompted for location of msgr3en.dll point to c:\windows\i386

%windir% = C:\WINDOWS if Windows is installed on the C: drive. I have no
idea about your machine. Paste %windir% into Start | Run click OK and see
what opens.

Try this. It has worked for other folks.

1. Go to C:\Windows\srchasst or %windir%\srchasst and delete everything
that you can.
2. Start | Run | Paste this in the box and click OK...

regsvr32 /u %windir%\srchasst\srchui.dll

You will see a message like this if successful...
---------------------------
RegSvr32
---------------------------
DllUnregisterServer in C:\WINDOWS\srchasst\srchui.dll succeeded.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

3. Go to C:\Windows\Inf or %windir%\Inf right click srchasst.inf and
click install.
