Tripredacus Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 It is clear you did not read the forum rules. We can start this again after you do that, as well as request a name change here: https://msfn.org/board/topic/71610-you-want-to-change-your-username/ Since the name you chose tries to work around a ban filter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you made a list of which files you replaced you may be able to revert. A repair install may be in order.

Since you have access to VMs, you could make a new one and install XP and IE6 and get the files yourself. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLeftOldComputer Posted July 20, 2023 Author Share Posted July 20, 2023 Hmm, I somepoint tried to spam error message box with pressing down enter, AAND! It says ieframe.dll is missing? What? IE6 doesnt include that+normal Windows XP doesnt have that? now I slapped on dll, but why? (null) isnt an Win32 value? I think I should restart pc. *Restarting vintage pc* Im still getting that error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotHereToPlayGames Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 TheLeftOldComputer - you can either spend 6 weeks trying to restore IE6 because you uninstalled IE7 incorrectly or spend 30 to 50 minutes depening on hardware to just reinstall XP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would also have to export .reg's from the VM and import to the host. You are really REALLY REALLY just better off archiving whatever you need saved and REINSTALLING your XP. If you have the ability to install to a VM, then you have the ability to install to your real hardware. I would suggest a program called DriverGrabber so you don't have to hunt for any drivers not part of OEM XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLeftOldComputer Posted July 21, 2023 Author Share Posted July 21, 2023 Im In an very bad statement, It has USB1.1 Internal and USB 2.0 PCMCI but, BIOS cant boot from it and BIOS update requires floppy which is broken, CD-ROM is unplugged for an unsuccesful try of putting SSD which worked on all my other PC's, I can just entirely remove HDD and use docker, but I use acronis for that purpose, Yeah I know that I can install to VM, But hardware is an XP computer like expected and its too old to even floppy drive to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
