Bootup is very slow and stops loading for a time, after
which event viewer>system shows: error: The WBHWDOCT
service failed to start due to the following error: the
system cannot find the file specified. What is "WBHWDOCT"
and hew can I determine the "file" the service is
specifying?? Thx for any help!!!
 
Hey Jimmy,

There's not much on the internet about this. It looks like its something to
do with the intel 440 chipset video driver or hardware monitor.

Try going to a command prompt and issue the command

sc qc wbhwdoct

and see if it comes back with any information about the service including
the path of the executable.

If not

sc query

Shows information about all the services which you can have a look through,
perhaps use the find command

sc query |find "doct"

That vertical bar is the pipe symbol, its normally shift-\ just above the
left windows key.

I had experienced that same error message and this is how I resolved it in Windows XP Pro:

Go to Device Manager.
Click the View menu.
Select "Show Hidden Devices"
Under "Non-Plug and Play Devices" scroll down to WBHWDOCT.
Right-click on the device and click "Uninstall".

Problem all gone!
