I used to be able to burn cd’s with my roxio burner until i accidentally uninstalled something in my remove programs file. now the computer wont let me burn because my DLL was not found. what do i do? i have no windows cd, no money to buy repair software and do i still have my roxio installed?
How do i get back the DLL i used to have on my pc?

On the internet, I have found a large number of photo restoration / repair software programs, but I dont know which is best / easiest to use with Microsoft Windows XP. Of the following, which would be best, especially for a Forrest Gump type of person.
1) Adobe Photoshop Elements 6.0 / 7.0
2) Roxio Creator 2009
3) ACDSee Photo Power Pack 2009
4) ACDSee Photo Manager
5) Sony Photo Go Editing Software
Which is the best value: price versus ease of use / understanding?
corrupt registry in windows xp?
June 16, 2009
Hi everyone, i am new here. I have a problem with mi windows Xp with a message of some unable to find register in:
systemroot\system32\config\DEFAULT
I searched in google in another computer and i found this instructions from microsoft website.
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;Q307545
I needed a windows xp cd (i got it from a friend) and with the Recovery Console i had to type:
md tmp
copy c:\windows\system32\config\system c:\windows\tmp\system.bak
copy c:\windows\system32\config\software c:\windows\tmp\software.bak
copy c:\windows\system32\config\sam c:\windows\tmp\sam.bak
copy c:\windows\system32\config\security c:\windows\tmp\security.bak
copy c:\windows\system32\config\default c:\windows\tmp\default.bak
delete c:\windows\system32\config\system
delete c:\windows\system32\config\software
delete c:\windows\system32\config\sam
delete c:\windows\system32\config\security
delete c:\windows\system32\config\default
copy c:\windows\repair\system c:\windows\system32\config\system
copy c:\windows\repair\software c:\windows\system32\config\software
copy c:\windows\repair\sam c:\windows\system32\config\sam
copy c:\windows\repair\security c:\windows\system32\config\security
copy c:\windows\repair\default c:\windows\system32\config\default
and then some other instructions for the safe mode in windows.
However, when i type
copy c:\windows\system32\config\default c:\windows\tmp\default.bak
the console respond with “cannot copy file”
Fine, i searched google again and found this page:
http://forums.techarena.in/windows-xp-support/886894.htm
Someone wrote that in that case I should go direct to type
copy c:\windows\repair\default c:\windows\system32\config\default
cause there is no “default” file in the config directory. But when i do that, there is a message “Do you want to replace default file (Y/N)?”
I am confused, there is a default file, but i can not copy to a .bak file?
What do i do now? do replace the file? would there be a problem in the future for doing that?
I can not use windows Xp, not even with the safe mode.
Thanks for any help you can give me, and sorry for my bad english.
BSOD: Copied over /repair/software and now can't login!?
My work computer recently stopped working. When I boot it up, it gives me blue screen with hive message can't find system32\config\system. I went into recovery console but it wanted admin password which I don't have and corporate won't give me. I don't want to send it in and wait to get it back, so I hooked up hdd to a desktop and copied c:\windows\repair\software to c:\windows\system32\config\sof… Put hdd back into laptop and booted up and it boots into windows! However, it doesn't recognize my username/password anymore. What can I do to fix this?
Thanks, but this is not a desktop it is a laptop. It is not the BIOS PW.
I have permission to fix my own computer. I am in IT at my local branch, but happen to work for a huge corporation who doesn't want to give me the ADMIN PW for obvious reasons.
I am trying to repair it on my own as mailing it in will take several weeks for a repair. Again, I do have permission to repair it on my own.
Thanks for the responses.
