Can someone give me instructions for replacing a winsock file in each OS? Win 95, 98, 2000, ME and XP. Thanks

Hi,
For Windows 98:
Use the System File Checker to restore files

1) Click START - RUN, type SFC and hit ENTER
2) In the "Specify the system file you would like to restore" field, type C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\Winsock.dll and hit ENTER
3) In the RESTORE FROM field, type in the path to your WINDOWS CAB files
(ie. C:\WINDOWS\OPTIONS\CABS)
(ie. D:\WIN98 where D is the drive letter assigned to your CD-ROM)
4) Click OK and continue with the restore function

Good luck,
Jim
