but if sfc is disabled and you make your changes to the system folder and then delete the dllcache and replace the original unaltered sfc_os.dll what will it do?

mine does not have these keys. i have sfc quota and sfc disable which is set to ffffff9d even though that is not supposed to work in sp2

so i got xp sp2 disabled sfc and it works fine except now it will not run windows update unless i put the old sfc_os.dll back. when i hacked the sfc_os.dll i didnt have the right version so i used 5.0.2195.7038. when i boot up it says it cant find an ordinal7 in the sfc_os.dll. i also have the sfcdisable registry hack and deleted the contents of the dllcache if i put the old dll back will it re enable sfc? are these errors normal?

using progman or winfile as shell only runs in safemode when lzexpand.dll is renamed in which case safemode can work normaly so that does not help me much. scanreg restore did not help. got into safemode and tried uninstalling stuff, but half of it uninstalls and the other stuff complains about the lzexpand.dll. at this point im considering just using it in dos.

forgot to mention i allready replaced lzexpand.dll. it changes nothing, but today i found out it will get to safe mode if i remove lzexpand.dll, but some programs like sfc for instance do not work and give me the same error. will try progman shell

ok so my dad has this extra computer he was using for a ham radio progect (digi pan) anyways it runs windows 98 (not se) and it has this error before you log in (never gets to the login part). the error shows and then all you get is the background pic, and the mouse works. same thing in safe mode (update: safemode works when lzexpand.dll is renamed) i have a hunch that some files are corrupted, but my windows 98 cd stopped working and i cant reinstall until i get another. (update: i tried different lzexpand.dlls and they dont help. one from the sysbackup folder, one from the cd before it stopped working, and one from the internet) scanreg shows no problems. msgsrv32 this program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down if the problem persists contact the program vendor msgsrv32 caused a segment not pressent fault in module lzexpand.dll at 000b:00000d6. registers: eax:00000000 cs=lee7 eip=000000d6 eflgs=00000246 ebx=00000006 ss=0d97 eisp=0000726e kbp=80407272 ecx0000a316 ds=lec7 esi=000072e4 fs=0000 edx0000ffff ks-0d97 kdi=le8f0006 gs=0000 bytes at cs:kip: 9a 64 09 df le b8 ff ff 4d 8b stack dump: lec772c0 05bf7293 72e41ee7 0000006 0000a316 0000lec7 003b0340 0017lee4 lec70000 001c72c; 0006if2f 00672e4 a0fd72b8 00400006 0d9772e4 0d9772ec
