I accidently deleted my VMM32\fsmgr.vxd file and now when my computer tries
to boot up it gives me a few error messages about not finding this file, tells me to hit any key to continuem, and shuts down. I tried the EXT function off of the boot disk and all it looks for are .CAB files off of the win98SE disk. I told it to look E:\WIN98 to look for Vmm32\ifsmgr.vxd to put it C:\windows\system and it looked for a bunch of .cab files and said that it could not find a match. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I am doing wrong and how to fix this mess? |

This will be option #2
What I found in another discussion group is that I was trying to extract and relocate the file to the wrong place and that is why it was not found. I should have been looking only for ifsmgr.vxd not Vmm32\ifsmgr.vxd and been relocating it to C:\windows\system\Vmm32 not just C:\windows\system. Unfortunitly our production group needed the computer and I had to put a ghost drive on until they get done and will let me try again. Hopefully here over lunch and I will have good news.

Well I got it figured out. My fix was to boot from the WIN98 boot disk and
have the WIN98 CD in. I booted with CD support. At the DOS prompt I used the EXT function. I was able to extract the correct file from the disk and put it in the correct location. I also found that I had to extract the IOS.vxd file as well. Once I did this I can now boot into windows normally. Thank you for all of your help!! "Kelly" wrote: > Ah, ok.
