Every time I start my Asus laptop ~ 3 months old I get the above msg.

Running Windows 7 home x 64.

I have no problem with any of my programs. Look forward to your assistance.

I followed the directions above doing aup clean startup and didn't get my error msg. I noticed in start up two programs that probably were a possible problem. One was connected to Sweet Packs toolbar. I unchecked and when I started normally no message. Thank you for the assistance. rosemere
