Look for fxsocm.in_ on your xp cd, expand it and put it in the %WinDir%\inf folder

You could also create a dummy inf by creating a blank txt file and renameing it fxsocm.inf

where i can find fxsocm.in_ in corporate winxp cd?

it will work if i have got cd with sp2 but i have installed sp3?

normally it should be in the i386 folder of winxp cd...

to expand, go to cmd, go to the i386 folder of the winxp cd, type "expand fxsocm.in_ %WinDir%\inf"

make sure your looking on your original xp cd, if u had used nlite or something else to customize your installation

Right click that link and press "Save As".

Place it in the inf directory mentioned earlier.
