Default Error

I discovered this week the spies which infiltrate
computers and hopefully got rid of them thanks to BT. But
now I have another problem. I keep having the error when I
switch my PC: A required .DLL file at startup POWRPROF.DLL
was not found. I don't know what to do. Can someone help?

Thanks a lot

Default Error

It is a standard W98 file that you can extract from your CD to the
Windows/System folder using sfc.exe.

Run sfc.exe and select the "extract one file..." option. Type in the
complete name of the missing file you want to restore or use the browse
button for a file replacement. Click start and in the resulting window,
browse to the location of the folder containing the W98 .cab files (either
the hard drive or CDRom drive). If the information in the "save in" box is
wrong, use the browse button to show where the file is to be restored to.
Click OK and if appropriate, on the resulting screen, show the location
where the file being replaced is to be backed up to. Click OK or skip as
appropriate. Restart your computer and the file replacement will occur
during the boot process.

If you are going to use sfc.exe for other than the extract option, I highly
recommend that you first read the article he
