Msconfig Startup Not Loading Correctly
Starting last night, as I boot up the computer, certain
files that are listed in Msconfig Startup hang and refuse to load and I have to CTL ALT DEL and end task to get the process to continue. These usually include systray, statemgr and vsmon. I have scanned the disk, run spybot and adaware, I have latest mcaffee virus protection and firewall and I just can't figure out what caused this. Files (like systray.exe) seem to be there in Windows/System as they shouldbe. ???????? |

Msconfig Startup Not Loading Correctly
I don't get error message. Boot process just hangs and
then I have to CTL ALT DEL and look at close program screen and I notice that certain things (such as systray) are not responding. I end task them and then the boot continues. I have to do that three or four times to get through the boot process. -----Original Message----- What EXACT error messages do you get on booting? -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2004, Win9x) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's or http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/f...2001/Mar01/Mar 27pmvp.asp "MAL" wrote in message ...
