when it boots up and as it is going on the desktop a error message pops up c:/ program- cannot find the file "c/program"(or one of its COMPONETS) make sure the path and file name are correct and that all required libaries are available. not sure what happen any solutions.Gonna need the full error message including the complete path...this is because the HKLM/Software/Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run key has an entry whose command line does not contain quotes around it. Use regedit to navigate there and look for an entry that lists "C:\Program files" but does not have quotes around the path. Then place quotes at the front and end of the program name.I went to the start/run regedit I find hkey_local_machine/softward/microsoft/windows nt /current version I do not see the c: program flles. I do not show any for hklmAlso check Current_user, as well as your startup folder, and the RunOnce KEYS in both HKLM and HKCU.


Also be advised that (IIRC) both the windows and the "Windows NT" key under the software/Microsoft key have "Run" keys.I found the run once- run oncex-run services and they all have default(value not set). I am not seeing any file for current USERS in the REGISTERY .interesting. Can you post a Hijackthis log?

I decide to log in as a another user and gave that user administrator privileges and that message doesn't come up for that user. thanks for the HELP. it does take awhile to boot up to the desk top.
