    , that's a good one!

    Well, after enabling the default firewall settings....still got the same yellow warning.....I think maybe is the ATI/AMD video drives, cause I see two entries in the task bar, but they are NOT listed under start-ups anywhere.

    this is not the exact way to identify the problem. I'll tell u how to do that.

    Open elevated command prompt, and type tasklist /svc and hit enter. It will give you all the task running under svchost.

    Copy all the content of the command prompt and paste it into a text file.

    Restart your computer and find the warning message in your event viewer and post here with the text file containing the command prompt content :)

    Are you using roaming profile?

    i mean, is your profile being stored on a network computer?

    Hi Delphin, no. This PC is only connected to another PC running XP SP3 via a Linksys WRT54GL router and the other PC also W7 Pro x64 is not even connected at all to the router, it's just by itself!

    Could it be during installation, I didn't provide any password? (hey, I'm the only one running all the PCs, lol).

    Right now every time the PC starts, it goes straight to the desktop, no need to select pix/user or enter password, exactly like my XP SP3...the way I like!

    p/s under my user name - AppData - I do see three folders 1)Local 2)LocalLow and 3)Roaming, not this one, right?

    Hi Ben,

    A silly question but I noticed something.

    What it your username you login with?

    You haven't named yourself SYSTEM, by any change have you?

    <- never mind that last question, silly joke.

    Hi squonksc, I never needed to enter a user name, there isn't a login screen to begin with. Windows 7 would just go straight to the desktop in record time, lol!

    No, I never named myself System!

    On a more serious note:

    Can you do this:

    go to the explorer

    right click on that disk7 (partition) in that is mentioned in the logs

    go to security tab

    See if there is a user in the list by the name:
    S-1-5-21-783115880-3742272611-1246857717-1000

    If there is.

    click edit, and delete that user from the list.

    These S numbers, are left overs from previous installs.
    They are unrecognized users.

    You also see those in dual boot situations, in which case you should not delete them.

    Please post back the result.

    But when you installed Win7 you must have chosen a username.

    We need to establish under what username you are working.

    If you can't figure that out, post back, I'll show you where to look.

    Hi squonksc, I don't know how to tell which is Volume 7, I attached two pixs of my HDDs.

    The OS partition was fully formatted/wiped before installation (fresh installation) .

    During installation, I entered "C2Q" as name and computer name C2Q-01.

    Ops, don't tell me Windows 7 is so smart that it knows that partition "H" is an active partition which also has XP SP3.....but I don't do dual boot, if I want to use XP SP3 in H, I simply go into bios and change the HDD boot sequence!

    Oh man, I just found out there is this unknow user??? see pix
