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?

dfs.vxd
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.

dfs.vxd
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.
