System 32 directory is open when my system is booted up.

[Josh Debo]

My pc crashed a few days ago when I was playing a game
and ever since then when my computer boots up the
system32 directory is open in the middle of my desktop. I
can close it and my Pc seems to be running fine at
optimal performance. The game still runs fins, still
crashes every now and then. I just can't seem to stop the
system32 directory from opening when I boot up my Pc.
Tried All the scandisks and disk clean up and so forth
but nothing seems to get ride of it.

Dose anyone know why this is happening?

Can anyone tell me how to stop it?

Any help or advice would be great.

Thanks,

Josh

Hi John,

This is a known issue for owners of an SB Audigy 2 sound card. Re-enable
the item in MSConfig.

Then see www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm, Line 260, Left column for a
small utility that will correct this for you. The problem is caused by a
leading space before the /L:ENG. This causes the problem, the script
corrects it.

If this is not the case, see:
