Hi DoG and war59312
war59312: With reference to the error, this is one of the reason I decided to buy XP Home OEM SP2 but I have not yet installed it yet. One thing is clear though and that it that I've only just started to get this error multiple times and I can tie it in to when I installed Sun Java Console ..... but it may be a coincidence, but I really hope that this is the cause because I've never installed Sun Java before.
I've now disabled it as recommended by DoG.
With reference to the URL's you gave; it appears that they are related to WinNT or earlier but I will make a note of your comments for looking at later.
The file you attached is the same version that I already have installed and I did a HASH check on both yours and my file and they are exactly the same.
I also ran SFC but there were no problems.
DoG: As you can see above, I disabled the Sun Java Console and we'll see what happens now but I will be installing XP Home OEM with SP2 over the next few days and I'll not be installing the Java Console afterwards.
Many thanks to you both.
Regards
