I am assuming you get these errors in DOS, just before Windows starts?

try removing all your network settings (since these files are usually part of network setup) via the network neiborhood properties.

if the errors still persist, try removing these file links from your system.ini and later your registry if needed. make sure you back up those 2 first before making changes

registry could not find the files???

baffled again can you suggest any thing

[malguru]

also on trying to remove the network settings pc comes up with rundll32 error in module mstcp.dll

i found one file in the registry : dfs.vxd
vredir.vxd was not there

on reboot pc comes up with system.ini message again but does not specify "any" file name for some reason.


any ideas??

OK try sysedit and msconfig to see if you can locate the 'call' in the startup files, remove the offending call and test the system
