Hi Bob, Thanks for replying so quick. Wen to eat something. Started it up with the control key down and entered safe mode. Screen has safe mode in all 4 corners. The spool32 illegal op box still there. Can't even click to close it. Before I did this i was looking at microsoft site and it said to do command prompt and type in scanreg/fix. It started going through it and got to 73% and message came up Repairing c:windows\system.dat and Windows found errors in system files and was unable to fix. Try to delete some system files to free up disc space in windows drive. Yea..how do you do this) If it doesn't work need to install windows to new directory. At this point I also typed in scanreg/restore and it did nothing. I thought it was something to do with the printer also. I did disconnect the printer yesterday. Can't scan norton for viruses or anything because I can't get rid of that illegal op box. It's about 11pm here and I'm getting a headache from working on this all day and will continue tomorrow morning. I appreciate your input. Keep trying to help me. Thanks Marianne
