Hi,

Try this fix

http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

Line 260. click on "System32 Folder Opens Upon Boot" Right hand side.

To use the VBS Files: Download .vbs file and save it to your hard drive (you may want to right click and use Save Target As). Double click the vbs file. You will be prompted when the script is done.

NOTE: If your anti-virus software warns you of a "malicious" script, this is normal if you have "Script Safe" or similar technology enabled.
These scripts are not malicious, but they do make changes to the System Registry.

Marianne Swearingen,

The Kellys-Korner fix worked for Dells with an older configuration that is currently being used. I suspect that the file will advise you that "the expected Reigstry value was not found." The only other information dealing with system32 on bootup is the MSKB document here.
