SYMPTOMS
When you try to install Personal Web Server, you may receive error messages stating that the following files cannot be found: Wsock.vxd, Msshrui.dll, Rpcrt4.dll, Secur32.dll, and Svrapi.dll.

RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, modify the Layout.inf file:


 * 1) Open the C:\Windows\INF\Layout.inf file with any text editor (such as Notepad).
 * 2) Place a semicolon  at the beginning of each line that contains any of the following files:
 * 3) Save and close the file.
 * 4) Install Personal Web Server again.
