Well, DaveA, I’m sorry I broke the rules, displayed bad manners or even “shouted”. I am visually impaired and foolishly thought that because you offered the larger font, I could use it. Forgive me. It won’t happen again. I hope YOU understand.

I’ve never experienced anything involving Microsoft that couldn’t eventually be fixed…or a workaround that resolved an issue. Until now, that is. I’ve been running Windows XP Home since it came out and have kept up with the regular Windows updates over all those years. About six months ago I tried to install SP-3 (when I felt it was safe to do so!) and, on install, it stops dead in its tracks – locked on to the HPFUD50.dll file. An error message indicates “Windows can’t open this file” and the entire install is reversed. I’ve had an ongoing issue with at least three Microsoft technicians, via Email and telephone calls and – to date – no one can figure out why this is happening or a way around it. If anyone, anywhere can give me any assistance I would be forever grateful. Thanks!
