Answer 1

the same ting happened to me!



the main reason i started getting this error msg was the time i updated to sp2, so here is how i get

rid of this d*** error msg.

step 1 : check out system properties -------->advanced------->performance---------->DEP (Data Execution Prevention) if its on then its the main cause of ur problem if not... then ur not lucky as i am.



step 2 : how to disable this d*** thing , its not easy though but i could handle it

first make a system disk if u dont have one already with attrib.exe file and edit app running

from dos coz u wont be able to edit the file which has the problem in it in windows.



step 3 : the file we are looking for is boot.ini which is located at c:\ the main dir of ur booting hard-disk



step 4 : startup (boot) from the system disk u made then do these commands

1. attrib -r -h -s c:\boot.ini "remove the hidden,read only, system properties from file"

2. copy c:\boot.ini boot.bak "back-up the boot.ini file"

3. edit c:\boot.ini "now here where we should start adding the option to disable DEP"

in file u will see --->

[boot loader]

timeout=4

default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS

[operating systems]

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=Optin

C:\ = "Microsoft Windows"



the only command we want to change is the /NoExecute option

change the /NoExecute=Optin to /NoExecute=AlwaysOff

now just exit when prompt to save the edited file just select YES



step 5 : change attribs back to normal by this commanmd

attrib +h +r +s c:\boot.ini



step 6 : restart windows normally and i hope u get rid of this d*** thing i was havin too

OAhlp.exe seems to be a part of an anti-malware program.



So either this program is malfunctioning, or you have a hardware problem, RAM or hard drive.

The GetDriveLayOut errors i'm surprisingly particular is bearing directly to a RAID setup, so i could might desire to agree that removing the by potential of RAID gadget could help. As for the "optimal style of secrets and techniques" errors, it potential you have extra effective than 4096 encrypted records on your laptop. the U.

Then use ImgBurn to burn the ISO to a CD. Then boot to GParted, shrink your cutting-edge abode windows partition by potential of approximately 3,072 MiB (3 GB), and create a sparkling NTFS partition from the empty area you in common terms made. Now you in common terms use your abode windows setting up disc to place in a sparkling replica of abode windows to the recent partition you in common terms made. you may desire to be waiting to get right of entry to all your records on the unique partition, so which you will returned them as much as an exterior force, then wipe your difficult force sparkling and reinstall abode windows returned. or you should basically change to Linux and sparkling up this situation indefinitely.

It is probably the result of registry errors.

Download a registry repair tool. That should fix it.
