How do i fix corrupted windows xp service pack 3 files after a virus screwed them up?

Q. Several Windows XP SP3 files have been corrupted after a virus attack on my computer and need to be fixed, how do I fix them? The system is prompting me for a location of those files. What do I do from here?

A. The best option is to open your Control Panel, and then uninstall Service Pack 3. Be patient .. it may take up to 10 minutes to be removed, as it's quite a large file. Then, reboot your Computer, and then go to "Microsoft Update", and run a Custom search for updates. Windows XP Service Pack 3 should be the first update offered. Download and install it, and then reboot your Computer. As with any changes to your Computer, always create a System Restore point first, in case something goes wrong. If your Service Pack 3 won't uninstall for any reason, you could Download Service Pack 3 from the "Microsoft Downoad Center", and manually re-install it over the top of the corrupted file. That should fix your problem. Please re-post if you have any problems. Good luck !

Will My windows XP startup disk erase any of the data on my computer?

Q. Ok, so my computer won't start unless I put it into safe mode. It just gets to the loading screen with the moving bar, and doesn't move past that. I want to try to use my Windows XP startup disk to fix it, but I need to know if it will erase any of my data.

A. Depends on the choices you make when using the disk.
If you choose to repair, no it wont, if you choose to install then yes it will.
Put in the CD
at the first option Press R to Repair Windows
choose the correct drive to fix (usually 1)
enter your password (if you don't use one press Enter)
type chkdsk /r and press Enter
allow it to run (may be several hours)
when finished type exit and press Enter
hopefully it will boot properly

Why is my sound different in windows XP after reinstall?

Q. I reinstalled windows XP to fix a problem and now my sound in WMP is different and in my opinion worse... I got what i think is the latest drivers for my soundcard and its still the same?

Also by the clock at the bottom right the little speaker, when i click on it to reveal all the settings, theres only like 4 or 5 different volume controls... there used to be about 12.

A. Try this:
Right click âmy computerâ
Select âpropertiesâ
Click âhardwareâ tab, select âdevice managerâ
Expand âsound Video and Game controllersâ. Your sound card should be listed.
If you see it and it has a ? or yellow ! mark, then the drivers are not installed. Simply grab you drivers disk and install them.
If you see a red circle with a line going through it, this means its disabled.
Right click on the item and click enable.
also when you click on speaker net to clock make sure you on playback not record. Record is only if you use headphone/ mic configuration.
