I have a major annoyance that occurs everytime I start up my computer. For some unknown reason, the System32 folder opens at every startup. I have read everything I can find in this forum, but apparently no one else has this problem. I've searched my startup folder - nothing. I've searched through the registry, but can't find anything that I'm willing to touch without being positive about what I'm doing. So if anyone can tell me how to stop the System32 folder from opening up everytime I start my computer, I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance, Breizh

Thanks. But I finally did find the solution on CastleCops. Apparently it's a Dell bug with the Creative Audigy Sound. Here's what I found: Related to the Dell OEM version of the Sound Blaster Audigy 2 sound card. If this item is listed and checked in startup, the System32 Folder will appear on every startup. A patch is available - filename R75304.EXE - that fixes the issue. You can find that file at support.dell.com by typing that name in the 'Search' box available there. It addresses the root of the problem in Creative's software and corrects it. Unfortunately there is no direct link to the file, but it's easily available using the search function.
