Depending on how bad your registry is damaged, scanreg may take care of your problem. Here are two Microsoft articles that will explain how to use the command.\n\nhttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/221512\nhttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/183887/EN-US/

Boot up into safe mode and re-install windows.  What's the name of the corrupt file?  You might be able to jsut rename the corrupt file and re-extract it fromt he CD.

Welcome your new friend the B.S.O.D (blue screen of death)\n\nIf the message is saying your HDD is corrupt, then your chances of it working normally is pretty much slim, Your best chance is to re-install your version of Windows...\n\nOr if your using XP, try using the repair function on the disc instead of a full re-install...\n\nhope this helps

if you are reffering to the message ' invalid win 32 application' then let me explain that all windows operating system till xp are 32 bit operating system and only allow 32 bit application to be executed(this means 32 bit is executed at a time). so if the program is corrupt, then you may get that message or you may get it if the operating system is corrupt. try reinstalling the application you are trying to access or u may have to reinstall windows. ps sorry if the info is not accurate, cuz the we need more info abt the problem\nlol

This can be caused by a variety of issues. There are a couple of quick things to check though. First, check the system startup to see if there is anything listed that no longer exists. This is done by clicking Start > Programs > Startup. If you want to get a little more in depth, you can also try editing the Registry. This is not for the faint of heart. Go to Start > Run and type Regedit in the line then click OK. This brings up the registry editor. Navigate to HKey_Local_Machine, Software, Microsoft, Windows, Current Version, Run. You will see all the applications and services that are set to run each time your computer boots. Verify that all entires listed actually belong there and are not software that you may have already removed but may have not gotten cleaned in the uninstall. You can also use RegClean to do this work for you. This is a much safer method if you are not familiar with the registry.

It depends on how you 're-installed' Windows.  If you did any of the following:\n\na) restored your OS using the Dell 'GHOST' image from CD that booted up and re-installed everything;\nb) inserted a Windows XP CD and during the installation did not choose to "Keep the current OS intact"\n\n...then you have probably already corrupted a good bit of anything that you have already had on the drive.  Anything else that you might want to recover could possibly be pieced together (from what can be found) by a computer forensics expert.

Simple answer: Yes.\n\n\nA little more complex answer: If you screwed with your registry without knowing what you are doing, do yourself a favor and reinstall windows.  Registry can and will cause a computer to go into shutdown.  If you want to go through some ahssel, try to do a system restore to take you back to before this problem happened
