Hello All,

I accadenttly installed the wrong version of vbscript. (Microsoft
Windows Script 5.6 (Windows 9x, Me, NT4)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=0A8A18F6-249C-4A72-BFCF-FC6AF26DC390&displaylang=en)

Now when i try to install the other version (for winXP and 2000), the
instller says the installer doesn;t have the Windows Logo testing, so i
doesn;t install.

When i call an ASP-page now i returns:

Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0201'

Invalid Default Script Language

The default script language specified for this application is invalid.

Does anyone know where i can download the right version of vbscript for
Windows Server 2003 ? (that's what i am running, inculding SP1)

Thnxs in advance!

Cheers,
Matthijs

I thought those were protected files, strange they weren't protected from being
downgraded.  Try SFC.EXE /SCANNOW:

C:\>Sfc.exe /?

Microsoft (R) Windows (R) File Checker Version 5.2
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

Scans all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with correct
Microsoft versions.

SFC [/SCANNOW] [/SCANONCE] [/SCANBOOT] [/REVERT] [/PURGECACHE] [/CACHESIZE=x]

/SCANNOW        Scans all protected system files immediately.
/SCANONCE       Scans all protected system files once at the next boot.
/SCANBOOT       Scans all protected system files at every boot.
/REVERT         Return scan to default setting.
/PURGECACHE     Purges the file cache.
/CACHESIZE=x    Sets the file cache size.

Lots of Google hits on this search string:
asp 0201 "Invalid Default Script Language"

Try both the 'Web' and 'Groups' search.
