Windows XP Pro query.

After installing a new motherboard bundle and subsequently having to format my hard drive, I went to reinstall XP Pro from the disk that I have used on this computer and the other one, but it told me that it couldn't find four files on the disk, I told it to try again, and then told it to skip them. It seems to have installed, and XP starts up, but it doesn't seem to be right. Here are the four files it said were missing:-

tahomabd.ttf
sxs.dll
mls_trb.chm
and netcbe.inf

Do I assume that I need these files, and is there anyway that I can get around it?

The first file is a font so you can do without it. Third is a help file also not needed. Fourth looks harmless but the second one may be necessary.

Try and get these 4 files from another disk/installation and burn a fresh CD. That's one way.

I don't know the size but if they're not too big I can email them to you.

Thanks, I've just had a look on this computer and I've got the sxs.dll file on here. So if I just burnt a new copy of XP and added the file to it, then that would work?
