I have an XP Home machine that is effectively hanging on boot up.
If I come up in safe mode I can do little but ALT-CTRL-DEL does let me
look at what is running.
I have one scvhost running at 33%, a rundll32 at 33% and explorer at
33%.
Kill off the scvhost simply transfers the CPU usage to the other
processes. Killing the rundll32 just puts explorer at 99%.
Nothing will load and run.
-----
Booting into safe with command prompt allows me to kill the processes
and run things (no explorer to get in the way).
What antivirus I have run shows up clean.
I tried running system restore, but it claims it can not do it.
Anyone got any ideas?
