ii386 folder issue

[SJB]

Hello,
During the attempted Setup for Fax Service in XP pro SP2 the i386 folder
that was
prompted for, is missing. I don't have the separate XP pro SP2 CD either
that could provide the required files.
Neither my XP pro SP2 installation disk has those files, which was
suggested to use.

However, I'd have access to XP SP2 Home i386 folder and it's files in it.
At
where earlier the Fax Service setup was a success.
Should/could I use these files for installing the Fax Service in XP
pro SP2 OS?

Thanks
sjb

I do not believe that you have answered the question as to exactly what
is the Windows XP-Pro SP2 installation disc. That is, is it a "recovery"
disc, an OEM installation disc specifically for the computer or is it a
retail installation disc? For the non-recovery type of installation disc,
just point to the cdrom drive when asked for additional files and the XP
wizard should be able to do the rest. Failing this, the wizard will name
the file(s) it is seeking. Do a search of the XP installation cdrom for
that file and it will point out the path.
