Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Error in Windows XP SP3 Home Edition

S

SuperNova

Hello,

I have Windows XP SP3 Home Edition on my Dell Vostro 1700 laptop for a
couple of years.

Yesterday while browsing the web, the laptop suddenly froze and I rebooted
the system by pressing the power button for a few seconds since the Shutdown
option did NOT work.

Once I rebooted I got some error messages like the following one.


[Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Program Files\AVG\AVG10\avgdiagex.exe

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual
way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.]



1) When I start any application by clicking on my desktop icons, I get the
same error message with just different program files pathname based on the
application name. So that proves the problem is not with AVG.....

2) I cannot access any programs from "Start" -> "All Programs" interface
either........It shows all applications but clicking on them doesnt do
anything.....

3) I canot shutdown Windows XP .......Everytime I have to press the power
button to reboot......


Can some one suggest how to fix these problems........

TIA
