startup c10 error

[Gav S]

When I startup windows 2000 pro it comes up with a
message "Cannot Import c:\WINNT\c10 error opening the file
disk or file system error" just OKaying this makes it go
away but I wonder if there is anyone who knows what to do
to fix this?

Regards

Start\Settings\Control Panel\Administrative Tools\Computer
Management(Local)\System Information\Software Environment\Startup
Programs|View|Advanced, then in the "Location" column, you'll find the path
to the "Startup" location either in the "Startup" directories or from the
registry's "Run" keys.

%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
%USERPROFILE%\%USERNAME%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

You can delete the shortcuts that you no longer want to run.


HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

You can delete the string value for the program you no longer want to run.

Also update AV definitions. Get some spyware detection/removal tools.
