| | Power Options is Missing I just installed Vista Business on an HP m8100n, and when I click on power options nothing shows up. I also get a shell error. The error code is 'shell:::{26EEO668-A00A-44D7-9371-BEB064C98683}\2\::{025A5937-A6B...\pageGlobalSettings' Any Help Would be Appreciated. |

| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Power Options is Missing Try running a "sfc /scannow" (no quotes) command to see if it can find and fix the error for you. This will show you how. http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/66...tem-files.html Hope it helps you, Shawn |

| | Re: Power Options is Missing I ran the check and it came back with corrupted files. I checked the CBS log to find out what they were because Windows could not fix the files. The two files are powercpl.dll and pnidui.dll. I download the dll's off the internet and put them in the system32 folder. But Vista won't allow me to take out the corrupted versions. I am logged on as the administrator and I tried to change the permissions of the files, but that didn't work either. Once again any help would be appreciated. -Ross |

Boot from your Windows Vista DVD, select the System Repair Option > on the setup screen, select 'Repair Computer > Select your installation of Windows Quote: > select Startup Repair option and follow instructions.
