Startup Problem

[Guest]

I have an ongoing problem that is; The PC starts up normally untill just as
the Desktop screen is opening and then it crashes. I have to switch off at
the mains, wait a few seconds and switch on again. The system then starts up
normally and everything works normally all day. The second startup always
works.
I am running XP Pro with SP2, plenty of hard drive space and memory.
I have Norton AV and BHODemon running constantly and run AD-Aware and Spybot
weekly. I have no virus detected and indeed this system has always been virus
free.

The only common factor that I can find is the following message.

In My computer;Manage; Event viewer; System I have found an error no. 7000.
"The General Purpose USB Driver (adildr.sys) service failed to start due to
the following error: The service cannot be started, either because it is
disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it"

The following was suggested:-
User Action
Do one or all of the following:

Review the error information displayed in the message.
Verify that the service password has not expired.
Verify that the service is in the correct location.
Verify that the service is not infected with a virus.
To display the WIN32_EXIT_CODE error that SCM encountered when trying to
start the program, at the command prompt, type
sc query service name
The information displayed can help you troubleshoot possible causes for the
error.
If the WIN32_EXIT_CODE is zero, then SCM did not attempt to start the
service because the error was detected first.

I have no passwords.
What is service%1 and how do I find it?
There is no detected virus in the system.
When I follow thw Comand Prompt route I get:"The specified service does not
exist as an installed service"

I am well and truly lost.

Any ideas?
