Hi, This is hard to say. Well I'm afraid of my registry. I don't want to mess it up. I was wondering if any of you would be kind enough to help me out. I've got 2 Booting Problems. #1 is a DSF.VXD system.ini or windows registry error. I know, I know.. I've got to clean my registry. Well I'm afraid of screwing it up.. :) The second one is almost as the first one. It's another system.ini and windows registry problems but it's called Z:iienesd I think.. Something like that. Well if you've got the time help me out please. thanks alot, lates bros.

P.S just looking over the other posts.. My problem seems very simplistic compared all the others.. lol

Hello

I'm not sure where these files are being called but here what I would do, If your scared of messing up the registry well look first in the system.ini, you can open it with notepad and make a search for the files that are causing you the error, then delete the line or just disable it with a ";" if you can't find either of them in the system.ini then unfortunatly they are in the registry just make a search for the exact name file as well and remove it from the registry if your scared your gona screw it up back up the registry first type scanreg in the run window and then say yes to the backup options, and if you make a mistake just go in to DOS mode and type scanreg /RESTORE and restore the backup you made and everything will be normal again, well with the same errors you had before *lol*, but if you delete the files in the registry you should be ok.

Hope it helps...

King,

First, you'll need to do a complete virus scan, that Z:iienesd is certainly virus related.

the dfx.vxd (note the spelling) is part of the networking components. Have you recently made chnges in Control Panel>Network?

Backup the registry and/or export the following key:
go to Start>Run, type regedit. Navigate to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\VxD
and see if a key named dfs exists.

Post back with that info
