WOW - I am amazed... Thank you so much - I will give it a try and see if it works .... I hope that I can get to Start and Run through the task manager because that is the only thing that will open...

I will post back to let you know..........

Ok I ran a new task through the task manager and I find the start menu, but Run is not an option - any ideas on where to locate the "run"  - I am not able to see anything but my desktop picture that is why can't just click on Start...  thanks.....

thankyou but I tried that and it asked me what program I wanted to open it with????
I didn't know what to choose or where???

TIA

I made a mistake and put in the Framedyn.dll - instead of the systemroot% - when I realized it I made the corrections and it said application failed to start because WININET.dll was not found  and then another error say that windows cant find it alltogether.......  Any ideas on what to do from here???

So much appreciated....

Try this

• Boot up your blank desktop, hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete simultaneously, select Task Manager.
  
  
• Goto the Application's tab, select New Task.
  
  
• In the window that open's type: cmd > OK.
  
  
• Change directories by typing: cd c:\ > enter (space after cd).
  
  
• Type: dir > enter. If there's a folder in the list labeled i386, continue.
  
  
• Type: cd i386 > enter. If the file wininet.dl_ is listed exactly as shown, continue

•  

   

• Make a new directory by typing: md c:\repair > enter (space after md).
  
  
• Type: expand c:\i386\wininet.dl_ c:\repair\wininet.dll > enter (space after expand & wininet.dl_).
  Here you should have received an expand confirmation expressed from x bytes to y bytes, z% increase. Continue.
  
  
• Change directories by typing: cd c:\repair > enter (space after cd).
  
  
• Type: copy /y wininet.dll c:\windows\system32\dllcache > enter (spaces after copy, /y, wininet.dll).
  Here you should get a "1 file copied" confirmation. Continue.
  
  
• Type: copy /y wininet.dll c:\windows\system32 > enter (spaces same as previous).
  Same "1 file copied" should be displayed.
  
  
• Close Task Manager.
  
  
• Now to exit the prompt type: shutdown -r -t 05 > enter to re-boot.
  This last one has spaces after shutdown, -r, and -t.

Thanks so much for your reply - I did what you said and I got to the black CMD screen,

however when I type in the cd c:\ and enter it says The syntax of the command is incorrect?

I am so thankful for all the ideas, but it seems I can't ever get past the first few steps :( I thought

I did it all like you said - so if you have any new thoughts, I am greatful for that....

ok did that - but it just brings up a new C: prompt and then I put in the dir> and it has a syntax error???

Ok

Let's work in simple way

First Download wininet.dll then put it in a flash memory or CD or  any thing you want

Then start your PC hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete to open task Manager click New Task then choose Browse and go where you put your wininet.dll and copy it then go to c:\Windows\System32 and past it .

restart and see the result

Before that you can do this to see you desktop

hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete to open task Manager click New Task then choose Browse and go to C:\Windows and find explorer.exe or just explorer and open it in task manager

Thank you so much for your help, but that won't work... I have tried running a new task to open the explorer before and it gives me the same prompt of - wininet.dll not found - try reinstalling to fix the problem...... I am not sure what to do from here, but I appreciate your help...

Ok

leave the explorer things

have you tried the wininet download in previous post

Hit back for result, if you tried it or not

Hey- I have tried running a new task and opening up the internet explorer, but I get that same error - so no I haven't downloaded the wininet thing beacuse I can't get online.... Is there a way to down load the necessary to an external hard drive and then open it up through task manager and donwload it that way??? hmmmmm LMK.....

You can download the wininet file from another computer and put it in external hard or flash ram

Connect your flash or external hard to your PC Then through task manager browse the path and copy wininet and past it in c:\Windows\System32
