View Full Version : Error message re MAIN cpl

Whenever I boot WIN 98SE, I receive error message "An error occurred while Windows
was working with the Control Panel file C:\Windsows\System\Main.cpl"

I can click OK & all seems to work well- until I try to use the scanner (USB) when
the error pops up again. After hitting OK about 8 times, the scanner comes up & works
fine.

I have extracted & copied the Main.cpl file from the CD (it's the same file & size
that was on there, but thought I would try anyway)

Searched the KB & found zilch!

Any hints would be appreciated

TIA
