Can't run System Confuguration Utility

[lilygoo]

I have Windows XP and from time to time have used system configuration utility to clean up my start-up menu. Now all of the sudden I can't even get it to open. I also notice that I can not complete a System Restore. I am logged on as the Administrator. Any idea of what is wrong? Do I have a virus that is aimed at attacking these operations? Please help if you can...I have been trying to correct for hours!
