what is NvCpl startup item?
I could use some help or a suggestion as to where to find
help or a troubleshooter for startup item: NvCpl command: RUNDLL32.EXE C\WINDOWS\System32 \NvCpl.dll,NvStartup location: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run The short burst of music played by Windows XP when a user logs on stutters (skips, gets stuck, stammers etc....), and the display blinks to black twice (every time twice) just for a second or two. Still trying Dell support. Tried uninstall and reinstall of Norton AntiVirus (per Dell suggestion). Also tried Repair Reinstall of Windows XP. I recently uninstalled AOL (not sure if this could have anything to do with problem). I identified NvCpl as having something to do with problem by running Startup and Shutdown Troubleshooter. When NvCpl is not checked under startup tab in msconfig in selective startup problem does not occur. I think NvCpl has something to do with Nvidia but don't know what to try. Thanks. |

A Google search suggests it's an nVidia component, so updating/reinstalling
your video drivers may be a good place to start. Assuming you are using an nVidia graphic card that is... Chek "Steve" wrote in message ...

Yes it does have to do with nVidia. Download and reinstall the drivers for
your video card from nVidia. "Steve" wrote in message ...

Thanks for all your answers! I had to reinstall my video
display adaptor drivers off the Dell resources CD. That solved the problem. Maybe you all have an answer for this one though? The drivers that were causing my problem were downloaded and installed off microsoft's windows update site after scanning my computer. I also tried downloading updated drivers off Nvidia's site. The same driver version from both places caused my problem. Version 4.4.0.3 Downloaded 7/9/03 from windows update, and version 44.03 (same thing?) off Nvidia's site 8/9/03. Wonder if there is something wrong with this version of driver, my system, or is this not a proper driver for my card (Nvidia ge force4 mx420). If so, why did windows update indicate it was? Can I, or should I update my drivers? -----Original Message----- Yes it does have to do with nVidia. Download and reinstall the drivers for your video card from nVidia. "Steve" wrote in message ...
