hi,
My windows XP failed to load the desktop and startbar at startup. It
only managed to show the wallpaper and a movable mouse.
I restarted my computer in safe mode and the problem persisted.
I could load the task manager and run programs. I couldn't, however,
load explorer.exe nor iexplore.exe. When I loaded explorer.exe, the
startbar only flashed very briefly at the place it was supposed to
load. The only good news was that I could cry for help here using
FireFox...
I updated the virus definitions of my Norton Anti-virus 8, but could
not get it to scan my computer. It showed an error message: "Could not
start scan. Scen engine returned error 0x20000058".
When I closed "svchost.exe" using "end process", a dialogue appeared
with a countdown timer, saying that my computer will be shut down in
about 1 minute. I opened a command window and typed the stop shutdown
command "shutdown -a", but it didn't work.
Thanks.
Regards,
Simon Chung
