Got this message
""Cannot find a file that may be needed to run windows or w/application. The
windows registry or SYSTEM.INI file refers to this device file, but file no
longer exist.
If you delete this file on purpose....................................'
If you still want to use application associated with this file......replace
the missing file.

vnetbios.vxd"" Press a key to continue.

Do this means "vnetbios.vxd" file is missing and NOT SYSTEM.INI file
When I press to continue it goes to desktop. Sorry for the silly question

If system.ini were missing it couldn't refer to vnetbios.vxd, could it?
