I should know this, but I don't. :mad:

I need the Windows XP command prompt syntax to move browseui.dll from a cd rom (d drive) to c:\i386. It's a corrupted file, you see, and a friend of a friend's pc can't start anything besides command prompt up until it's replaced with the new file on the CD.

Rep and blowjobs for those who can help.

This command is always used in this style

Copy “path of file” “path”

Example1:

C:\>copy Friday.doc c:\”documents and settings”

Example 2:

C:\>copy a:\weekdays\Thursday.doc c:\temp\days

Example 3:

C:\>move Friday.doc c:\”documents and settings”

why don't you just run a detect and repair booting off the CD?

I don't have the pc or the cd with ,e. I just said I'd ask on their behalf. BTW, you mean the original windows XP cd, right Bad Company? Because from what I understand, they just burned the dll to a blank cd and are trying to replace the old file.

Ok, I got to look over my cosuin's shoulder at this thing today and I think this lady is fucked. No choice but to reformat. First of all, she didn't get disk to go with her pc, she had one of those partitions in the hdd that remind you every now and then to burn a disk, but she never did.

Worse still, the pc is apparently FAT32 and not NTFS. I didn't think it was possible to run XP formatted that way. :wtf:

To top it off, she's totally pc illiterate and her kid fucked up the pc with some internet game ( :roll: ).

Fuck.

Put the hard drive in another PC to copy the data she wants off it, then reformat :y:

Or better yet, we fixed the problem and deduced that her boyfriend downloads too much porn.

Thanks, anyway.
