Additional Components Install trouble

[inhand]

I am using Windows XP Home edition -

I am trying to install additional Windows Components. It asks to "Ensure that the disk labeled 'Windows XP Home Edition CD-ROM' is in the drive selected below, or provide the location where it can be found."

It defaults to the wrong drive, (though it may have been right at one time, I've added drives) so I navigate to the correct drive. It then says "Setup cannot copy the file accserv.mib."

So I go deeper into the CD and find ACCSERV.MI_, but that doesn't work either.

Any thoughts?

You can try the "Expand" tab in MsConfig.

Or copy the file to any other folder and use WinZip to uncompress it.

Type "Expand" in the Help and Support program for a couple of other methods.
