I tried the suggestions in the link you sent. When I folloed
instructions in
the "resolution", I found that there is no "Dell QuickSet" listed.
There is one entry (Default) (Value not set). Could that have
something to do with it?
When I followed the second part of the instruction, the "DellSupport"
already had the quotes around it. Any other suggestions?
Sorry, no since I can't see your computer. Something you have in Startup
references Dell and you need to find it. Use the System Configuration
Utility:
Start>Run>msconfig [enter]
This brings up the System Configuration Utility. Look on the Startup tab
and find the probable culprit. Uncheck the box next to its name, Apply
and OK out. You don't need to restart immediately, but the next time
you do you'll get a dialog saying you've used the Utility. Just tick
the box that says in effect, "don't bother me about this again".

There will be an entry in there pointing to a Dell folder.
