Running Vista Ultimate 64
Setting up new computer, had a bad install of some sofware.
You know how when you're installing software and the software asks you to reboot the system to continue the install?
Well, this install was for some soundcard sofware and it crashed during the install.
Now, whenever I restart Vista, I see this leftover screen for a zillionth of a second before Vista restarts.
I think it was the sofware screen asking if I wanted to restart Vista, but I can't be sure because it goes by so fast.
Is there a way to get rid of this screen?

Registry cleaners can damage the registry by using aggressive cleaning routines. Many users (including some Staff Members) have reported problems after using registry cleaning tools - to include those tools released by Microsoft. This can cause your system to become unbootable.
Registry cleaners generally don't do anything significant for your system. This topic discusses it in greater detail than we could address here: 
Not all registry cleaners create a backup of your registry before making changes. If the changes prevent the system from booting/logging in, then there's no backup to restore in order to regain functionality. A backup of the registry is essential BEFORE making any changes to the registry.
