Folder Appearing At Startup

[James]

When I turn on my computer and Windows XP loads the
desktop appears but it always opens the "System32" folder -
how can I stop this? - (i've looked in startup folders
and its not there).

Cheers

If you have a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 sound card, see

Boot

Otherwise, see:
