Guest Information Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 I have a Windows Media Center machine with three users (plus the "Administrator") The "Administrator" user, reached only by Ctrl-Alt-Del at the login screen, seems to work fine. When we login to any of the users, we get the "Application Error - The instruction referenced at location could not be "read"" Obviously not verbatim, but this does not occur in the Administrator account. A virus was removed, which I believe the remnants result in the App Error. I can get into the registry through the Administrator, but cannot with the users. I believe there is a reference in the registry that, when removed, will clear up this error. The errors seem to occur as programs are loaded at startup. I can certainly provide more info as requested, I hope this is a good starting point. Thanks in advance for any insight, Dan
