Hi,
Ok, then there is likely some corruption of the 3dfx tools and the
driver
set should be reinstalled (or more likely updated, though these are
not
really supported by the manufacturer anymore). Here is a source:
http://www.voodoofiles.com/3dfxhelp.asp
On the msconfig matter, that is probably a damaged registry entry.
Start/run
regedit, navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App
Paths\MSCONFIG.EXE
Double click the (default) value and copy/paste in this:
C:\WINDOWS\PCHealth\HelpCtr\Binaries\MSConfig.exe
(change the path accordingly if your installation is not C:\Windows).
Then
click ok and close the registry editor.

Hi,
If you run msconfig and uncheck this one, does the problem stop?

Hi Bill,
While those run key entries are odd, they are not
necessarily
the
causes.
Could you post the contents of that key and of the HKCU
run
key
in
a
reply?
To do this, start/run regedit, expand the branches to each
key
(do
this
one
at a time). Click on the key, then on file/export. Give it
any
name,
then
save to the desktop. Once you have saved both keys, close
the
registry
editor. Right-click one of the saved files on the desktop,
choose
edit,
it
should open in notepad. Click edit/select all/edit/copy.
Open
a
response
to
this post and click in the message text area. Hit ctrl+v
to
paste
the
contents. Repeat for the other saved key, then send the
post
for
examination.
