Re: No one responded to my 7/22 thread



Problems like this must be solved by the OEM because they have to do with
the original source of the installation files for your operating system.
There is no way for anyone here to solve them. That's why your post went
unanswered.
Joining a thread that is discussing a completely different problem and
trying that solution is unwise indeed.
