My computer is extremely slow. A couple of times it has even shut down and started rebooting again. The following error pops up after it finally gets to the desktop "exception error occurred while trying to run ""C.\Windows\system32\ekallgixrly.dll"Dllstart "
If you can get it to boot up to safe mode by pressing F8 during Windows bootup, you could try using your System Restore Point to go back to a ealier time before your problems.
Method 5: Boot in safe mode and run the System Restore tool
To boot in safe mode follow these steps:
1. Restart the computer. Immediately after the screen goes blank for the first time, or after the BIOS post ends, start taping the F8 key repeatedly. The Windows Advanced Options menu appears.
If the menu does not appear, restart the computer and try again.
2. Select Safe Mode, and then press ENTER. As files load they will scroll down the screen.
Note Safe mode uses a minimal set of device drivers and services to start Windows. The default Microsoft VGA driver is used for display at 640 X480 resolution and in 16 colors.
3. Log on to the Administrator account. If a password was never set, leave the password blank and press ENTER or click the green arrow.
4. Click No in the safe mode information screen to start System Restore.
5. Select Restore my computer to an earlier time, and then click Next to proceed to select a date with restore points available.
6. Click Next to begin restoring the system to a previous state.
It's preferred that you find the culprit behind that dll file and get rid of it.
I performed a Google search for that file name (ekallgixrly.dll) and the only hit was this thread. ekallgixrly.dll - Google Search
Download and extract Mike Lin's Startup Control Panel from the attached file. (It's safe, clean, freeware.) It doesn't install itself or write entries to your registry. Just extract it and run it.
Look for any startup instances which may reflect that file name, or otherwise be possibly associated with it.
Post back with your results and any further questions.
