I assume you have done a scan disk.
I assume you have gone to safe command prompt and removed all *.tmp files
that build up with incorrect shutdowns.

I would refresh the files with the Windows 95 disk. I would also refresh
the Service Pack 1 files as well.

If you still get a problem refresh the files again but say yes to replacing
the later files with the earlier ones then add the Service Pack 1 again.
You will get only one problem in that it will ask for LPT.VXD. Point it
back to the Windows\system directory for this and it will be happy. The
Service Pack will then refresh it.

Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Aussie Bob
