Not a Vista file. Try to figure out what fast.exe is. Then disable it from running at startup. Have any old power toys installed? One of those used a fast.exe. -- Sharon F MS-MVP ~ Windows Shell/User

The file is a part of the "fast user switching" "feature" of windows. I disabled it with msconfig but I still get an error message on every bootup. Yes I did have xp powertoys installed at the time of my upgrade. Of course it wont uninstall so now I guess I'm stuck with a reformat to fix it.
Thanks!

Well I removed "fast.exe from my /system32 folder and all is well. Old windows power toy, dated 9/01.
