thanks for the help but no luck, I've already tried using the last good configuration but no it didn't work either

it's a win 2000. nothing I know of was installed prior to this happening. I've done scans with avast, Ad-Aware, and Spybot and it came up with nothing

I have a major problem with a computer, when I turn it on windows starts loading configuration, network setting ect. but after that nothing happens. It's just blue and I don't see the desktop or anything. I can start it in safe mode though. there are no problems with the device manager. I think I tried just about everything I can think of but I don't know what's going on. any help would be appreciated

Ahh, young padawan. You are not wise to the ways of the force. Respect your elders, yes? Older and wiser than you is Vanny.

Knows much, he does. Can help you he can.

well said Stank_Ho

well you see...Macs are nice and all...but they're also kinda expensive if only i was rich

what about the mac mini?

windows server 2003 isn't on the list! grrrr!  haha im totally a mac guy but I use server 2003 for uh yea . . . server stuff macs are my life and joy!  windows 2000 totally blows xp out of the water in the stability department and being a clean mean machine but I'd take os 10.3 neday!  can't wait for 10.4!  long live the mighty mac tiger!  grrrrr!!

I'm with you, I can't wait for Tiger 

i like windows xp cause basically these days, windows is a must if you wanna play games

but i LOVE how Mac OSX looks, i would GLADLY use a mac if game developers made more games for mac than windows

but what about Virtual PC? run that program and just about anything that works with windows can work on a mac

hey sandandsnow22

not a stupid question but, i dont think there is many members that tested all these OS and then its hard to vote, like me

i use win XP Pro and like it alot, but maybe the others is better

maybe the question should have been what OS you running?

VanBuren

yea that would have been better but most mac users usually use both. like I have a windows 2000 as the server for our wireless router but I prefer the Mac 10.3 for browsing and work. have you tried using Panther before?

a stupid question but I decided to ask it anyhow

I prefer Mac X 10.3

I have dw4000 2-way system and I'm only running one comp but , since having the dw4000 for about 15months it's Crappy now well 500k ...makes me sick on;y because i went from 2.4 mb d/l speed to 500k over 4 months but anyways dun expect fast speeds if u got direcpc  they are really getting bad : ( not worth my 1200$ lol but oh well enough crying later

yea I heard they were doing bad I have starband 360 and it runs at about 550kbps on average

thanks vanburen I hope it works

it seems like the pctel speaker phone service is needed to run the service control manager............now what?

but I can't reinstall it , it was never installed on this computer and I don't know what it is

ok I think I narrowed down the problem. I followed what  it said to do in the link van gave me. I went to event viewer and looked why it keeps giving me that error message it says:

The W2K PCtel speaker phone service failed to start due to the following error: the system cannot find the file specified

I need to know how to get rid of it

Thanks

thanks alot van

*** STOP: 0x0000000A (0x04000110, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x80454DA1) IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
