RE: "An exception occured while trying to run

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Try the fix for that with xp SP1 or
SP2.http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=392C2F1B-AA24-48E5-8D5B-EA56341DB936&displaylang=en

I get this error message "An exception occured while trying to run
"C:\WINDOWS\System32\shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL powercfg.cpl"," when I try to
open the power configuration in control panel.

Similar message (desk.cpl or sysdm.cpl) when trying to open the System or
Desktop icon in the control panel.

In safe Mode the Display and Powerconfiguration icon open fine but the
System icon does not.

Question:
1. has anyone seen this issue and resolver it?
2. What does\does not load in Safe mode that may resolve some of the issues?
3. Any ideas on how to proceed?




Any ideas besides a reformat reload?


Thank you.
