ATTN: ABHINAV2GOOD...I need your assistance

I want to tell you how much I appreciate your sound advice. Everything you told me to do was right on target. BRAVO SIR Now I have encountered a problem. I have copied and pasted your instructions as to where I encountered "a fatal error, system setup has been terminated" "ERROR CODE c:00000000080" there were several other error codes that I failed to write down due to the building frustration. What do you suggest I do now. I am still awaiting a call from MSN's level 2 support from the SP2 sector (lmao) But I am unable to proceed from the paragragh below. It is on the restart that I get a bright blue screen with the fatal error on it.

Note After you restart, the system may lock up with a black screen. (Your mouse will work.) In this case, restart again by turning the computer off and then back on. The second restart will let you to log on.

When your computer restarts, Windows Explorer (Explorer.exe) does not run, and the Windows icons and the Start button are unavailable. To resolve this problem, follow these steps:
Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to start Task Manager.
Click File, and then click New Task (Run...).
In the Open box, type regedit , and then click OK.
Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\RpcSs

On the right side of the viewing pane, right-click ObjectName, click Modify, type LocalSystem in the Value data box, and then click OK.
Restart your computer

 

Diver: you'll probably get better results if you continue on the same thread. It's fine if you want what'shisname's advice, just remember there are others who want to help, and have the expertise.

Here is the rest of the thread.

If this is an unrelated problem (probably not) you should be more specific as to what the problem is.

 

Thank you Kronus; I will follow those instructions next time. As for the reason for starring a new thread on it. Abhinav2good was the persons instructions I was following and I would prefer to stay with the same "tech" as the advice he had given was on target. From now on I will keep related problems on the same thread. Any advice you may have on this problem would ne greatly appreciated also.
