PROBLEMS AFTER RUNNING MISCONFIG

G

Guest

1.On the last occasion that I used misconfig, I needed to reboot my computer
at some stage and continue working with the system in a diagnostic state,
with no programs running, so I clicked to check the dialog box that appears
before the windows configuration utility to stop it from coming up and from
launching the utility after reboot. Thereafter, I checked the normal start up
box so that the computer could load my normal start up programs, but that was
never to be, except, fortunately, for three essential programs, namely,
ccapps, zone Labs Client and matcli.exe.

My start up manager, winpatrol stopped working, in the sense of no longer
being able to control programs as configured. When I tried to install a
different one, I got the error message ''programs not pre-set.'' It wouldn't
install.

In the result, I have to start programs manually now, as they won't load
with windows anymore, even when when I configure them to load at start,
either from within the applications or using a start up manager.

I've run msconfig to make sure every desired start up program is also
checked there, and they are. However, I also noticed that the windows
configuration utility invariably comes up now with the selective start up box
checked.

Does this mean that my computer now runs permanently on the selective start
up mode?
What is the root cause of the problem? What is the solution? will a repair
of windows cure the defect? If so, how should I proceed to do that without
affecting the functionality of installed programs?

Since the above event happened, I've also noticed that When I'm trying to
install new software, I sometimes get the following error messages:

(a)''error. Could not write value 'xxxxxxxxx' to
key\Software\Microdoft\Windows\Currentversion\Run Verify that you have
sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel''
OR

(b)''Error 1935. An error occured during the installation of the assembly
''microsoft.windows.Networking. DXmrtp, type=''win332'', version=*5.2.2.1,''
PublickeyToken=*6595b64144ccf1df,'' processor architecture=*X86'', please
refer to help and support for more info. HRESULT oX80070005
OR

(c)Error:- 1603 Fatal error during installation
consult windows installer help (msi.chm) or MSDN for info

2. The following problem was in existence before the problems described
above:

When I try to log into some websites, I sometimes get the following error
message:

''Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default
driver specified

/asp_bin/newuser.asp, line 188''

What should I do?

As long as you have something listed but unchecked via the Startup Tab, you
will begin in Selective Mode. To remove them:

Clear Disabled Items from Msconfig Startup and Selective Startup (Line 148)
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

Or...remove the runkeys from here: Start/Run/Regedit

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
