Well, you appear to have some software installed and running on startup that
is misbehaving. You can determine what it is, but it's not going to be
simple. (Curse those bad software developers anyway.) From an account with
administrator privileges, click on start - run, type in msconfig, and hit
enter. This will bring up the system configuration utility. If you click on
the startup tab, you will see all of the programs that launch at startup.
You've got to figure out which ones are causing the problem for you.
The best way to narrow things down fast is to repeatedly cut things in half.
Count how many entries there are, and then deselect the top half of them.
Restart. If the error is still there, then one of the items that is still
checked is causing the problem. Uncheck half of the items remaining.
Otherwise, you know that one of the items you unchecked was the issue, so
re-enable half of the items you most recently disabled. By doing it this
way, rather than going one by one, you'll get to the answer a lot faster.
Once you figure out which program is causing the problem, you can either
check their web site for an update, remove the software, or stop running it
at startup.
