To whom it may concern:



I accidentally turned off rundll32 in MSCONFIG for the initial applications

running during the initial startup of my computer. Clearly this has made my

computer difficult to use. Anyway, I have the original XP install disc, can I

use that to turn rudll32 back on?



Please let me know at your earliest convenience.



Thank you

Can you boot into Windows at all? Safe mode?



What exactly did you turn off in msconfig and how did you do it? Please

be explicit, because your statement that you "turned off rundll32"

doesn't make any sense.



You should be able to successfully start with *all* of the items in the

"Startup" tab disabled.

WhereTF did you find rundll in msconfig? These ng's need a moron filter!

Hey, if you don't like posting here, then don't! Then no

filter needed!

Maybe this is it:



My computer was screwing up, some things were not working and I was

getting some kind of error messages, sometimes all the time! So I ran

some kind of anti virus scans or something and they found some things

it said it did something. Then I was getting some kind of error

message (I think) about something not being found every time I started

my computer so I ran msconfig and saw some line in there that had like

something... rundll32.. something something or another so I unchecked

it. Now my computer is still not running right.

If that was showing up in msconfig, then it's surely malware.

Run your updated AV and 3 or 4 antispyware programs.
 
You are infected with some sort of Malware. Have you checked for that yet?

If you are having difficulty running AV scans locally, you can also try an

online tool like at http://housecall.trendmicro.com/.
