Default dfs.vxd

error message at boot boils down to dfs.vxd file is missing. Read the
Microsoft article on this. I know HOW to extract one file, and where to GET
it from. Where do I extract it to ? System,system32, and shell folders all
were tried to no avail. Help ?

It goes in the C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM folder. Make sure you are
extracting it from the CD you used to install the OS to get the
correct version. If no help what is the exact error message?

As that file being missing often points to other misconfiguration problems in
Microsoft Networking, I suggest you remove and then reinstall Client for Microsoft
Networks, in Control Panel Network.

replacing the dfs.vxd file in the system folder did the trick. Thanks, I kept
trying to drill down to a further subfolder.

Glad to hear the simpler method worked for you. It is less time-consuming.
