google for, and download, kernel 32.dll and place it in your windows/system32 folder. reboot. and bada-bing, bob's your uncle.
careful, though, theres a flood virus known as kernel32.exe

reinstall windows.
you can reinstall while selecting the option to keep your files.
afterward, navigate to c\documents and settings. you will see your documents/files under your old user name.
your program files will also be untouched. you may have to delete some program folders since a lot of programs may not run
note however, that reinstalling windows wipes out the registry and the system 32 folder , which means that any application that requires registry entries (or creates files in system 32 )to run will not work.
hope this helps.

Yes, He is a good engineer in the house. That's it. But keep note of all your existing device drivers if necessary use a driver back up program to back-up those drivers like the modem and sound. Video and others are usually always taken care of by Windows by default but most of the cases not the sounds and the modems. Thank you. |

@ Poster My own contribution is first, back up your file then format your system. You have a virus on your computer and the earlier you get rid of it the better for you. After formatting, get an anti virus installed on your computer before you transfer you files back to your computer. I hope this helps and if not, please get in touch on 08020579189 or email lateeph@gmail.com. Regards |

I think the problem is a virus problem,all you have to do is to format the system make sure you back up your vitae documents before formating, Good luck.

its true formatting could solve the problem. but for a real techy, formatting is a last resort, not the first resort. there are other ways to do this before formatting. i've read all the posts above mine and i'll put my money on neotony's suggestion (not like the others are wrong though). its same thing as repairing windows, but this time u're doing it manually since u know the "offending" file.

See, I know what it means to be having a problem with your system, and it appears to defy all suggestions.
From experience, there are many causes of your PC having to reboot, like hardware conflict, systems error, virus attack, corrupt operating systems, damaged, etc.
I provide solutions all the time, some of which you might not find in the books! I also know the importance of safe-guarding your data, so, dont settle for less, cool?
For the pin-point solution to this and many other laptops, desktops and network issues, call me on:
0806-634-3377
0805-634-3377
0802-634-3377
All of the numbers 're working, but store all, due to network issues, ca pish?
Pal, I can put that hump behind you, and you can take that to the bank!

At times the processor may be responsible for it, check if the processor
is getting enough air

What you need to do if you dont want to loose your files is to copy all your files from my document into a folder in your Local C

Also check your RAM , if you have two, remove one, check; put it back and remove the other. RAM can also be the problem. Again check your computer temperature settings during startup, make sure it is turned off

Having read all the responses, I will have to agree with neotony and dual core. Formatting should always be the last resort! Do as neotony suggested but I'd do it in safe mode. By the way, while you're in safe mode run a virus scan on your PC to make sure there are no culprits lurking in the dark. In addition, you can use this free utility to gather information of your system's configurations including device drivers installed on your PC. If you're still having the same problem, shut down your PC, remove your hard drive and make it a slave drive on another PC. Then back up all your data from there. At that point, formatting should be considered. Good luck to you. Peace!
