All I can say is that it works great. I've been lucky enough to use it and it has resolved countless problems.

Thanks for the great work! Will there be a button to uncheck blue screens?

Actually, adding an extract util for all the windows files on the CD would be fantastic!
Finding specific ones is a real pain!

Keep up the fantastic work DJL – you rock!!!

I hope to have it check the most common locations for these files (C:\i386 (or other i386 locations), C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386, System32\Dllcache, and whatnot) and if they don't exist there, you can have DAF extract them from the i386 folder of your Windows installation CD.

Hi DAF,

With regards to:

"4. Important utilities are checked for existence (regedit.exe, net.exe, net1.exe, msiexec.exe, etc) – %0 (not coded yet)"

Will this feature offer the ability to locate a local folder or CD containting the OS installation files and then offer to re-install the missing files?

Kind Regards

Simon

lookin good!
btw, for the current dial a fix beta, in win9x, it will complain that msiexec.exe isnt in \windows, thats because it is in \windows\system

I've been wondering where the DAF beta's went off to. Now I see that it's a total re-write, I'm amazed. I'll be awaiting this release in high hopes.

Also, be sure to check out the new BHT website, linked above. ;)
