    Windows... ARGH!

    Stardate Unknown

    Well obviously, this sentiment is nothing new to anyone that has used PCs for any amount of time. For the most part, I like using XP but damn they really need to get their crap together.

    Recently, I began getting an evil error message shortly after startup that messed up my sound and other things...

    "Generic host process for WIN32 services must shut down"... There is a lot of technical mumbo-jumbo, but I couldn't seem to fix it, even with the patch from Microsoft. I ran Spysweeper, my anti-virus... nothing. It was definately time for a format C:

    I formatted, re-installed Windows, redid the service pack, and still, the error message persists...

    ARGH! Any ideas at all how to get rid of this problem?
