bottom of this thread suggest a windows update could be at fault. i have no idea how you could narrow it down to which one.
http://forums.cnet.com/5208-6142_102-0.html?threadID=148439 last ditch approach would be a windows repair install This post has been edited by caperdog: Nov 7 2009, 09:55 AM |

Before repair installing try to do these things. Disable windows update. then uninstall all the windows updates. then go to safe mode and run a virus scan. After that do chkdsk. Then restart the machine at last good configuration. See if this works.
