Often when booting my computer w/Win 95, I get all the way to the wallpaper window(screen?) and it locks up. I press ctrl+alt+del which shows "MSGSRV32 not responding". I sometimes see "Spool32" also. I went to the following location in my registry. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERS ION\RUNSERVICES And I found this: a square(almost) with ab in it then (Default) and (value not set) in the first line. The second line had the same square and BCDetect and then "C:\ WINDOWS\SYSTEM|bcdetect.exe defer I checked the address for runservicesonce and it just had the 1 default line like the first line above. I went to this address because of a previous post I read here about the problem. Now, what is BCDetect.exe and/or is it causing the problem?
