After I ran SFC on my Windows 2000 computer, the Event Viewer shows that
about 95 files were checked. Every file has the same information:
“The system file could not be copied into the DLL cache.”
When the scan is finished , there is this information item:
“Windows File Protection file scan completed successfully.”

My question is why the files were not copied into the DLL cache, and how is
this important. The reason I ran the SFC is that my windows boots normally
only every other boot. On the first boot it hangs right after the startup
theme sound ( there is an hourglass and no icons are on the desktop). Then I
do ALT-CTRL-DEL and restart the computer which then boots all the way. The
file ntbtlog.txt in the windows directory is the same regardless whether the
boot completes normally or not. Any ideas how to correct this?
