Well Samantha that could be making things worse by not switching of your computer. Everytime it starts up it creates a backup of the registry just incase there is a problem. As your computer is startup up keep the CTRL key press until you see the DOS menu showing Safe Mode. Press number 5 Command Prompt Only, at the C:\ prompt type in Scanreg /restore with a space in between and choose a date before this problem occured. How long have you had this problem? Which web browser(s) are you using with number and service pack? When this problem first occured you should have done a Scanreg /restore.

The browser in use, most of the time, is Firefox 3.0.8 Other browser rarely used is Expl 6 with all security updates.. I'm on Window98SE. I don't know the service pack #. I don't really remember the exact date the problem occurred, but should be back 6/7 weeks approx. Keith, I'm terrified in doing the scareg/restore: I'm afraid I may make things worse since I don't have any specific date to restore registry. I have been using CC cleaner from time to time. Also I'm using Spybot that sometime is slow in opening for the updates. That's all I can tell you. Hoping you can guide me through this. Is this problem serious enough to affect the whole computer?

Try defraging, your computer, First run ccleaner shut down then restart and defrag, If it won't defrag, Run scandisk If you need to run scandisk make sure to put a ckeck where It says fix errors On Thursday, April 16, 2009 at 7:56 pm, samantha wrote: >A BLUE screen is recently appearing on shutting down system indicating an error "at >0028:C02987178 in VXD VWIN32 (05)+000012DO the current applic will terminate...." > >I have NOT installed any new program.

If you using IE6 then I just wondered if you were using IE6 with Service Pack 1. Open IE6 and click on Help\About Internet Explorer and check the number it should be listed in Update Versions: SP1 |I don't really remember the exact date the problem occurred, but should be back |6/7 weeks approx. |Keith, I'm terrified in doing the scareg/restore: I'm afraid I may make things worse |since I don't have any specific date to restore registry. How many weeks have you had you computer running all the time, 6 or 7? Well you can't do any damage doing a Screnreg /restore because you have other dates to try. I know it will only show 5 different dates because there are only 5 backups made. You can increase this number but there is a fiddle facter involved. |I have been using CC cleaner from time to time.

As Spirit suggests you can try a Scandisk and a Defrag. I don't know how often you use these if ever? If you've never used them then it may help your system but not your main problem. You can Scandisk and a Defrag in Safe Mode (as intructed above) so that nothing else is running that could interfere.

I just wonder how serious this problem could get. It only occurs on shutting down and by hitting any key it disappears and computer shuts down normally.. All other programs and Windows seems to be OK. No error picked up by scandisk and CCleaner does not find any error in the registry. Just a mistery!

The only startup items you should leave running are: ScanRegistry TaskMonitor SystemTray LoadPowerProfile Your antivirus program (trust me, you won't have a hard time figuring out which one is your antivirus program. It is pretty obvious.) You can leave the programs you have unchecked if you have shortcuts on your desktop or in you programs Since you need these startup items to be running all the time in order for your computer to work properly, make sure there is always a check mark next to all of these startup items. If you don't see one or two these items in your list of startup items, that's OK. For example, some people may not have a LoadPowerProfile while others may have two. The big thing to remember is that you don't want to uncheck any of these files if you have them.

Depending on who's AV you are using there is always part thats running in the background that Task Manager doesn't show so your quite safe even when your surfing. AVG 7.5 has Avgamsvr.exe running all the time.

In addition I have uninstalled the Spybot prg. because it was acting kind of strange on its opening process. I have now shut down the system a few times and it shuts down quickly and so far no...blue terrifying screen ! TG. I just hope it won't appear again. Many thanks to all of you guys for your time in helping me in solving this problem. This board is GREAT. samantha On Sunday, April 26, 2009 at 9:02 am, Keith Stanier wrote: >Spirit wrote: >The only startup items you should leave running are: > >|ScanRegistry >|TaskMonitor >|SystemTray >|LoadPowerProfile > >And Explorer > >|Your antivirus program (trust me, you won't have a hard time figuring out which >|one is your antivirus program.
