Hi

By mistake I have deleted the some of the windows components (Control Panel
-> Add-remove programs-> Add/Remove windows components -> I selected
accessories and other over there.

Now I do not have any of the accessories.

When I click to add again the PC is looking for file from I386 directory. I
am unable to locate the files nor I have media to insert.

By the way this is a branded PC with complete license.

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards
MND

Which is difficult, when they don't have the CD.
