Got a friend caught a bad virus and decided to just format and start over. He used the original startup disks that came with his computer (fairly new one). When it is all said and done, it is giving an error when Windows starts up. It can't find SYSWIZ.386. We can't figure out where to "look" for it when I don't know what program it came from. Naturally the start up CD installed several programs. Anyone know what this file is a part of? Thanks,

Michelinda

Though I do not have this file on my system I think this is driver for the "system wizard", a software update feature/program.

It being a .386 file check in the system.ini file. if it is there then just comment it out and reboot your system.

This file is usually associated with HP PCs in the past. To replace the file you must use whatever vendor disk ou have . it is not a native windows file.
