Re-install missing files

[Guest Victor]

Windows XP SP2

Windows Media Player 10

Internet connection Verizon DSL

 

Problem: When I try to access a radio station in Windows media player 10 I

keep getting the message "Reconnecting attempt x". This occurs when I select

WMP Fast. Selecting Slow works ok.

 

I recently removed files from the registry to clean out all traces of

Norton/Symantec entries and removed all files relating to same. Prior to

this activity the problem did not exist. Also, I was running WMP 9. I

downloaded WMP 10 in the hopes that this would solve the problem. It did not.

I used restore the system to a prior state, ( I created a restore point prior

to working on the Registry). This did not help. Registry repair software

indicates many paths to missing files. How can I re-install the missing

files? I tried using [somthing] scannow. (Don't remember the somthing

letters.) This gave the error "cannot find scannow".

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I tried this as I wrote in my initial post. I received an error "cannot find

findnow".
