Jim, did you check your event viewer? In XP, it's in 'start',
'programs', 'administrative tools' 'event viewer. It info
should be at the top of the log, which log, I don't know.

You can clear the logs then reboot and check again.
That should help you narrow in of the cause.

Every time I boot up the laptop I get:

"Windowsapplication1 has encountered a problem and needs to close"

Annoying but seems to not be a problem otherwise. Anyone know the
cause?

Thanks, Jon! I'll take a look.


Webroot reports that as some type of virus. But Windowsapplication1 is
a default name for a visual studio project exe.
I would run a virus scan , houseCall or MailwareBytes and see if they
detect it.
