Solved: Constant Error Message on Win Start Up

781 Views 6 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  Glaswegian
Hello

This is a small problem but a nuisance anyway.

When I rebuilt my PC (new mobo, CPU, memory & case) evrything went fine. Moved all the hardware from my old case to the new, re-formatted the hard disk, nice clean install of Windows etc etc. Problem came when trying to install software for my USB cable modem. The software included various connection monitoring tools but I kept getting an error message that a particular file could not be found. In the end I decided to use a LAN cable, (LAN drivers came with the mobo) give the cable software a miss - no problems! However, every time Windows now starts, I keep getting the missing file error message. I checked the registry to see if there was any chance of it being a 'run once' type of file but could'nt see anything (although I'm not overly familiar with the registry).

As I said this is just a nuisance - but it would be nice if there was a way to get rid of the error message permanently.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Regards

Thanks for your reply.

I went straight to the registry and found a folder called 'BroadJump' - they provide the software for the cable modem. It's in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\BroadJump.

Just before I do anything drastic - should I just delete the whole folder?

Thanks again.

Regards
The file is this

F:\installs\TeraUSB\VTruck2.exe

I was installing from CD when I constantly received the message that the above file was missing. Worked OK on my old mobo and chip - I think the new ASUS mobo just didn't like it.

Got it. Wasn't very keen on being deleted mind you, but East-Tec's Eraser sorted it.

Many thanks for help - greatly appreciated.

Regards
