Windows XP Dell PC: Windows cannot find c:/windows/svchost.exe

[alisampras]

Dear Windows experts,

I just register to this forum and i am very2 new to this.

Whenever i startup my Dell PC 9200, i always see this pop up message " windows cannot find c:/windows/svchost.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again ".

I need a guide for me to start troubleshooting and eliminate the above pop up. Please understand me that i am not very expert in using MS Windows OS but i do use it daily for basic work.

Spec

------

Model: DELL Dimension 9200.

CPU: 1x Intel 2.1GHz

Memory: 2x512 MB

OS: Windows XP Professional

Looking forward for any help..

Thanks.

I would say you have/had a Virus/Trojan that your antivirus program has/may have been able to removed, but did not remove the startup information, which is why you are getting that error.
Suggest you download & run HijackThis and post a log so we can take a look.

Once installed open HijackThis by clicking Start / Programs / HijackThis and click the button labeled "Do a system scan only"

Click the scan button in the lower left hand corner of the interface and HijackThis will quickly scan your system.

Once the scan is complete the scan button will now read "save log".

Click this button to save the log file to your PC. Once you select where you would like to save the file it will open in your systems default text editor. Typically this application is Notepad.

Copy all the text and post it here.

Let me know the next action plan..

Thanks.

Please don't use double spacing when posting a log.


Run HJT again and get it to "fix" the following entry ...

F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe C:\WINDOWS\svchost.exe
This is a reminant of a Trojan, needs fixing.


I'm suspicious ... I can't find much information on ...
C:\DOCUME~1\pbuza1\LOCALS~1\Temp\clclean.0001
... I'm not suggesting you use HJT to 'fix' it, but you should clean out your Temp folder using the built-in clean-up tool.


How To ...

From the All Programs menu, choose Accessories, System Tools, Disk Cleanup.

Most of the Disk Cleanup options are fairly self-explanatory and merely consolidate functions scattered throughout the Windows interface. For instance, you can empty the Recycle Bin, clear out the Temporary Internet Files folder, and delete files left behind by Indexing Service. (Avoid cleaning out the Downloaded Program Files folder, which contains generally useful ActiveX and Java add-ins.)

Using these default settings, the Disk Cleanup utility is strictly an interactive tool. Each time you run the utility, you must select options you want to run and then click the OK button to actually perform the cleanup.

NOTE: The Disk Cleanup utility includes one confusing option that can leave an inordinate amount of wasted space on your hard disk if you don't understand how it works. When you run Disk Cleanup, one of the available options offers to delete Temporary Files ... the accompanying Help text explains that these are unneeded files in the Temp folder. Unfortunately, this option may display a value of 0, even if your Temp folder contains tens or even hundreds of megabytes of useless files. The reason? this value lists only files in your Temp folder that are more than one week old. If you want to completely clean this folder out you'll need to do so manually. I am reluctant to proceed with manual instructions as you yourself admit to being a little unsure.


I also suggest uninstalling the Vivotek program, you don't need it, and I don't really know how good it is supposed to be. I suspect it is an "added-value" program from Dell Hell. Totally useless.

Apart from that, your log is clean, but please post a fresh log for conformation.
