Hi.... i am having a problem with my computer as it fails to start sometimes while loading windows xp and shows me a blank screen. Sometimes it opens in safe mode and on certain other occasions it works but i can close my programs and they keep gettin stuck. most notably my Maya 2008 software which is a licensed version crashes abruptly and doesnt give me a warning or an error message. It just closes. I have done my standard virus scans and it didnt find any viruses but it found two warning files....

C:\hiberfil.sys
[WARNING] The file could not be opened!
C:\pagefile.sys
[WARNING] The file could not be opened!


i then used the hijack this scan and i have posted the log below....

I would appreciate if you could look into this and help me find a solution. Thank you.

Regards. :-)
As with most malware removal help forums, we see more victims of infections than we have volunteers. Although at times the task is daunting, our helpers do their best to attend to all.

If you do not receive an answer after 72 hours (three days) you can help out by letting us know by posting in the The 72 hour bump room. If you still require help, please do this in order to avoid your topic being archived.

Be sure to include a link to your original post. Just the link please, we don't want HJT logs posted in the 72 hour bump room. If your helper wants a new log they'll ask you for one.

Please do not post in the 72 hour bump room with a link to an archived topic. If your topic has been archived, you will need to open a new topic in the Malware Removal room and post a fresh HijackThis log in that new topic. Archived topics will not be reopened.
