View Full Version : error message at start-up

Hello all,

When I re-boot my PC, I get a window that says the
following cannot be opened:

TFTP2620
TFTP3316

Each of these comes up in a different window.

The window gives me a choice of:
1) asking windows to search for a program to open it
2) search manually

I have no idea what this means.

Thanks in advance for any help with this,
CC

It would appear that you have a program trying to load at startup, and for
some reason it can't open. There are a couple of places to check for
programs that load at startup.

1) go to Start - Programs - Startup. Remove any rouge programs from there
(you can right click the icon, and choose delete from the drop down menu).

2) Go to Start - Run - Msconfig. Go to the Startup tab. Everything checked
is starting at boot. Uncheck anything suspicious.

When you reboot, you'll get a message that your computer is starting in
Selective Mode. Check Don't Show Again, and you won't see it again.

There's a better way to remove registry based startup programs - by using
regedit. Post back and let me know if you'd like the instructions for it.

Good Luck!!
