Help. What do you do when the thing that doesnt work is
the help and support?. When I click on it it just loads
the border of the window and then freezes. It's a brand
new computer.

If the above repair does not work:

Go to Start > Run and type in: helpctr -regserver

To reinstall Help and Support:
Go to C:\Windows\inf\pchealth.inf.
Right-click and choose install. Have your XP CD available.

Note: The folder is hidden by default. Go to Start > Run and type in:
control folders. View: Show hidden files and folders and uncheck
"Hide extensions for known file types".

Guess I'll have to reinstall, the other repair didn't
work. Thanks for the help.
