C:\WINDOWS\Systems32\Tools\DelFolders.exe does not look like a xp file that would run on startup hence the .exe i think that may be a virus its trying to run but if you have anti virus on your computer it may have removed it to stop it from running but im not sure you'd probably have to ask some one with more computer experiance.

Check Start>All Programs>Start up : and see if there is somthing in there that does not look normal

Also try

Start> Run> "msconfig" > Startup : then look for somthing that doesnt look normal there.

I checked the Start - Prog - Start Up tells me to reboot

I then went into Start - Run - "misconfig" - not in there at all

I was wondering - they say you can fix errors by running your Windows CD again will this help me to regain the error on startup and also the defrag - thanks for trying to help - Lavender18

MSCONFIG is defanatly there =) and yes if that is a windows error it can most probably be repaired by using the windows xp disk

ok thanks for help - tried misconfig on captials and not - just states not there to try search - did that - in files and folders - no help. Will try windows XP to run again to see if fixes error and defrag - thanks for all help.

It is a simple typo error misconfig will not work msconfig will.
