[David Marsh]

I am receiving an error message on startup stating that
the computer cannot find the system32 file. Any
suggestions/pointers?

Thanks in advance

Hi

If you mean 'system32.exe' - then your system has been infected:

http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.kwbot.f.worm.=
html

If not that file, could you please post a few more details?
