msconfig not working

[BP]

All I want to do is disable some startup options. For
the first time though i have noticed that msconfig will
not execute within the run menu. It says "msconfig not a
valid WIN32 application"

I don't know what would've disable this or won't allow it
to work.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Have you scanned the machine for viruses lately? Can you run regedit?

Curious because I have seen a few viruses that do this. If you can open
regedit then it wont be what I was thinking of but you can also remove
startup items there in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.
