Hello Peter,
Unfortunately it's not that easy to get files from the Windows Vista DVD.
You have to have a Wim filter driver installed to be able to mount the
install.wim file which is what contains most of the files of the OS.
To install the wim filter driver, you need to download and install the
Windows AIK. Link is in the article listed below.
This article's resolution points to how to do this for one particular file,
942968 Stop error when you try to download updates from Windows Update on a
computer that is running Windows Vista: "0x80070246"
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;942968
So you can use the steps in this article , just change the files names to
the filenames that are missing or corrupted.
The question of course is whether or not the files were updated post the
files on the DVD, if so they should be updated with the more current
versions of the files.
Thanks,
Darrell Gorter[MSFT]
