Do Only this part again with Dial-A-Fix
Open Dial-A-Fix folder you extracted earlier
Double click on Dial-A-Fix.exe to run it

Select the [color=\"#008000\"]GREEN[/color] (Select All) button on the bottom,
All selections on the main windows should now be checked
 then click on GO
Ensure Date/Time are correct when prompted then click OK
Let the tool continue, when it's done Close the main window

Reboot your computer

Back in Windows
Exactly what can't you install?
Only one program, or other programs as well, give examples

Edit>>Just upload OTL.txt to MediaFire, no account is necessary
Post the download link here

Ok.

Have uninstalled Internet  Exlporer 8.

Ran Dial a fix again.

I just tried to install a game (it uses windows installer package) and it worked fine.

I still cant install Solarfire (which uses windows installer package).

I double clicked on 2 other files on the Solarfire disk (they were applications) called instmsia and instmsiw.
Error message said "Wrong OS or OS version for application"

Is this any help????

Personally, if I just Clean installed Xp, and had this many problems, I would just start over

Now, let's go back to the first reply you gave

Quote
I have done a validation check through microsoft.com and the OS shows up as 'genuine'. I just think something went wrong during installation and a file is missing or something.

It's quite obvious from your OTL log, this is not a legal version of XP
That may be where all the problems are stemming from

I suggest that you, ONE: Purchase a legal version and clean install
Or just plain clean install anyways as you have to many problems at the moment

What do you think?

Hi there.

We thought of exactly the same thing.....we formatted the hard drive and reloaded windows xp and it had the same problem.

I think it may be too old as another computer (formatted and reload windows xp at the same time) worked!

I will recommend whole new computer!!!!!

Anyway thanks for your help....we learnt a few things along the way.

Take Care and shall talk again soon (I just know it)
