Hi:
The following driver is not loading:
NDproxy.sys
is there any way to correct this?

If you click start then search, include hidden and system files, look for NDProxy.sys is it located in

C:\Windows\System32\drivers

Or

c:\windows

Or

c:\windows\system32

Yes
located in :
c:\windows\system32\dllcache
c:\windows\system32\drivers

appears not loading

[joejobs]

I guess there is one not working;
since it appears twice in the bootlog

these is are the threads in the log:
Loaded driver \SystemRoot\System32\Drivers\NDProxy.SYS
Did not load driver \SystemRoot\System32\Drivers\NDProxy.SYS

If there is only one in system32 drivers

Items in blue which are underlined are clickable to give more information about the process

Click start then run, type sfc /scannow then press enter, you need the XP CD

Windows File Protection will show an on screen blue progress bar which will simply disappear when the scan is complete, reboot when it does

If you do not have an XP CD you can borrow a same version as was originally installed XP CD, if you downloaded SP2 then you need an SP1 XP CD

I did not understand

no,
there are two.
one in: system32/dllcache
the other one in: system32/drivers

Run this

Click start then run, type sfc /scannow then press enter

[joejobs]

nothing happens

[Retired Tech]

Can you right click the taskbar, click task manager, click file, click new task, type sfc /scannow then click OK

[joejobs]

nothing happens just the cmd window shows up

question:
can the problem be that one of the two instances of the driver is not loading and the other is loading?

[Retired Tech]

Did it just start this?

[Retired Tech]

Click optimize and improve then system optimizer to optimize the computer, select computer with an internet connection from the drop down menu, this also requires a reboot

I regularly follow that procedure to do maintenance on my PC.
Already did all of those steps.
