Autoruns - Sysinternals: what to do with 'File not found: '

[Macamba]

Hi,

I'm suffering from a XP SP3 system that takes ages to boot. At the moment
I'm looking at Sysinternals (www.sysinternals.com), an utility I downloaded
from the Microsoft website. This utility looks at what is started during boot
up of a system.

At the moment I'm looking at the tab 'Drivers', which contains a few entries
that are missing. Can I delete them?

The list is:
i2omgmt File not found: C:\WINDOWS\System32\Drivers\i2omgmt.sys
lbrtfdc File not found: C:\WINDOWS\System32\Drivers\lbrtfdc.sys
PCIDump File not found: C:\WINDOWS\System32\Drivers\PCIDump.sys
PDCOMP File not found: C:\WINDOWS\System32\Drivers\PDCOMP.sys
PDFRAME File not found: C:\WINDOWS\System32\Drivers\PDFRAME.sys
PDRELI File not found: C:\WINDOWS\System32\Drivers\PDRELI.sys
PDRFRAME File not found: C:\WINDOWS\System32\Drivers\PDRFRAME.sys
Profos c:\program files\common files\bitdefender\bitdefender threat
scanner\profos.sys
sptd c:\windows\system32\drivers\sptd.sys
Trufos c:\program files\common files\bitdefender\bitdefender threat
scanner\trufos.sys
WDICA File not found: C:\WINDOWS\System32\Drivers\WDICA.sys

Just disable them, uncheck them. They should be already. They
seem to show up on every computer I see, specially the PDCOMP PDFRAME
PCIDump ones. Some are new to me but if you get file not found you
can open the regedit entry yourself and kill it, if you can't do it in
autoruns.

I just disable them so I can put them back if needed.

Read this http://forum.sysinternals.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4719
especially #12. There are a number of 'file not found' items that should not
be messed with.
