I was never successful at getting the McAfee scanpm.exe program to work on 
my older motherboard.  It was definitely motherboard/Bios related since my 
son had the exact same problem with his machine. The line that launches it 
is in the autoexec.bat file.  It is supposed to run the first thing on a 
reboot.  I think I had to change it to scan.exe instead of 
scanPM.exe.  Since you have Inoculate It, you should un-install the McAfee 
program, or at least remove the autoexec.bat line that launches scanpm.exe.

If you need help in un-installing the program or editing the autoexec.bat 
file, please write back.

About Inoculate It message: In Inoculate It you can go under tools and Auto 
Update to download the latest Virus files automatically as long as you have 
registered the free version.  Just be connected to the internet and it will 
do it for you.
