The problem that I am having is, when I start (or restart) my XP PC I
frequently get the pop-up window stating that the application failed to
initialize. This window pops-up twice right after I log in as an
administrator. The pop-up only specifies:
Windows Application error
Application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005)
Click OK to terminate application
After that all I get is the desktop background, no short-cuts listed. No
start menu. I can to cntl-alt-del to bring up the Windows Task Manager. That
allows me to restart again. Sometimes it works and sometimes it takes a few
restarts before it works.
I even tried sfc /scannow
to repair the problem, but it has no effect.
I did notice 1 additional thing, when it does not work the process ccApp.exe
is not running. I think this is a Symantec app, but I am not sure why it
would cause XP to fail to start.
I have thought about a Windows repair or a complete Windows install. What do
you recommend?
