Screensaver help

[Dan45]

I accidentally deleted some .scr files from the system32 folder and now i can't install any screen savers nor use the ones i didn't delete. (it just shows "none" on the change screens saver menu). I remember deleting a small (5kb or so) .scr file which i assume caused the problem. At the moment i don't have access to any other Vista system so it would mean the world to me if someone could help me by uploading that/those files :D

Thanks in advance

have you tried system restore? probably the easiest way to start with

Hi Dan45, I would try http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/66978-system-files-sfc-command.html?ltr=S first, if that doesn't restore any missing system files, then system restore as Archie suggests.

I'm currently trying the SFC command but the problem is that i deleted those files some weeks ago and hadn't noticed the screensaver problem until recently ...so the restore points won't help me since i only keep the most recent ones to save some space.

I'll edit when i finish the SFC

doesnt matter when you deleted them mate the sfc scannow seaches for missing or corrupt DLL's and then replaces them (you need your operating system dvd) dont matter when you deleted them

I meant the system restore when i said i couldn't because i deleted the restore points of when i still had those files. SFC says it couldn't fix some corrupt files so right now i'm trying to figure out how to open CBS.log

Edit: It shows me on CBS log that it's missing "logon.scr", "ssbranded.scr" and "scrnsave.scr". Is there any way to restore them other than system restore ... i don't know why the SFC command couldn't fix them :S. I really don't want to reinstall Vista :D
