[resolved] Error Message at Startup of 2000 Pro

keatingj · 07-14-2005, 06:13 AM

1. I removed Checkpoint Firewall-1 because it was malfunctioning. I used Microsoft Add/Remove Software facility. This was originally m4n70s.exe.

2. I now get an error message displayed at startup of W2000 Pro.
-mn470s.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows.

3. Dr. Watson identifies m4n70s.exe as the aborting program.

4. System Information via the Management Console:

-Running Tasks m4n70s.exe C:\WINNT\System32\m4n70s.exe
-Loaded Modules m4n70s.exe is in the list.
-Startup Programs m4n70s.exe is called 3 times by:
1. .DEFAULT
2. Administ-
3. All Users

5. When I check the System there are 3 Groups:

Startup All Users:Startup
Startup Default User:Startup
Startup Administ-HXMSWL\Administrator:Startup

7. I am trying to find a way of getting into the Startup Files for these 3 User Groups to remove the entry that calls m4n70s.exe.
