Hi,1. Since when are you facing this issue?2. Were there any changes made prior to this issue?3. Have you logged in to the computer as an administrator?Step 1:Check for the issue in ‘Safe Mode with Networking’.‘Safe Mode with Networking’ starts Windows in safe mode and includes the network drivers and services needed to access the Internet or other computers on your network.A description of the Safe Mode Boot options in Windows XP: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315222Step 2:This could also be of Virus activity. I would suggest you to run virus scan.a. If you don’t have anti-virus software installed on your computer, I suggest that you run a Malware scan on your computer.http://www.microsoft.com/securepcb. I would recommend you to run online Virus Scan to remove any infections, if present.Follow the link below to run the free online scan: http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/default.htm Regards,Manasa P – Microsoft Support.
