Windows XP IEXPLORER

[tonyb2760]

I will start from the begining. I had to do a repair install due to boot

errors and iexe7 was installed during the process. Now I can not get any

updates or upgrade to explore 8. I get the requested loop key not found in

any active activation context. I do not have any other browser installed, nor

can I get one installed due to the same message every time. Can someone give

me solution without a complete reformat?

Thanks,

Tony

If you get SP3 for XP, you will get IE8. Just get the Windows Updates, and

IE8 will show up eventually.

Had IE7 and/or IE8 been installed before you did the Repair Install?
