I'm becoming desperate... please help me!
The symptoms are similar to that of the blaster worm. When booting into Windows XP, I get an arrow message saying "the instruction at '0x000cfe50' referenced memory at '0x000cfe50'. The memory could not be "written". Okay to terminate program. Cancel to debug."
Closing the window allows me to boot fully into XP, but then I get the infamous shut down in 60 seconds message:" the system is shutting down. Please save all work in progress and log off. This request was initiated by NT Authority\system. Message: Windows must restart because the RPC service terminated unexpectedly." And then it counts down from 60 seconds, after which it reboots.
I've also seen other errors like for generic host process for Win32 services, and a svchost.exe error.
I tried to format the hard disk and start all over, but the problem reappeared after one day. I'm using panda fully up-to-date antivirus software. I have tried removal tool for the blaster worm and a few other worms but to no avail. Also, when does XP are fully updated with service pack two etc. To me, no suspicious processes are running. Please find my hijackthis log below.
Cheers,Sune

(I meant of course "not virus related").
The title of the window with the "the memory could not be 'written'" is svchost.exe error. The system is also behaving strangely in many other ways. I get many error messages regarding many seemingly unrelated things. Lately, when running the blaster removal tool from Symantec, I got the Windows blue screen (kernel_data_inpage_error). I did it again after rebooting, and everything was fine, and no worm was found. Cheers,Sune.

Thanks for the advice. I did that already, I ran the Dell diagnostic express tool, but perhaps it's worth running the full version?
