I turned my computer and everything loaded up as usual, went to my user name, it loaded my settings and this popped out
An exception occurred while trying to run C:\WINDOWS\system32\NvMcTray.dll,NvTaskbarInit
I tried with the other user names, I tried installing Windows XP again but got the same pop up. How can I fix this, I cant use any software on the computer and I had a lot of pictures in the HDD that I dont want to loose. Please help, what can be the problem?

Well first you need to know what it is...

What is it?
Nvidia Media Center Tray - NvMcTray.dll

-------------------------

It seems that you might have corrupted video drivers. Or it could be some form of malware that has corrupted that file. As for installing XP, how did you do it?

thanks for the reply, I hit DEL before it loaded Windows, set up the BIOS to boot from CDROM, reinstalled windows(30+ minutes) and rebooted again. It asked me if I wanted to repair hit R, tried that but couldn't figure out how to do it so reinstalled the windows, I did this 3 or 4 times with the same result.
Any suggestions?? A week ago I noticed that the morpheus was on, found a whole bunch of new crap software(free poker and stuff) removed morpheus from the control panel.

That might be the key to this delima. How did you get rid of it? Cause a simple delete doesn't always work.

As for the windows installing, if you just re-install, not repair but re-install, it keeps files existing on your HD it just re-installs all windows components. If anything try that, if that doesn't work then it could be Morpheus still on your pc...but let's pray for the better. :tazz:

As The Operator has said a repair doesn't erase any of the programs and files on your computer. I would suggest trying to reinstall your Nvidia drivers.
