The site wants me to do followiing things :
a. Click Start, click Run, type "cmd" (without the quotation marks), and
then click OK to open a command prompt.
Type "net stop helpsvc" (without the quotation marks), and then press
ENTER.
b. Type "cd /d windir\pchealth\helpctr" (without the quotation marks), where
windir is the Windows folder, and then press ENTER.
c. Type "rd packagestore /s /q" (without the quotation marks), and then
press ENTER.
d. Type "cd binaries" (without the quotation marks), and then press ENTER.
e. Type "start /w helpsvc /svchost netsvcs /regserver /install" (without the
quotation marks), and then press ENTER.
f. If any of the following processes are running, stop them: helpsvc.exe
helphost.exe helpctr.exe


But my prob is that in my c:\windows\pchealth\helpctr packagestore folder
is missing and also doesnot have files in C:\WINDOWS\Help

%windir%\inf

Locate the file "pchealth.inf", right click on it and choose "Install".
You may need XP CD. After this, restart Windows.
