WOW EXEC CRASHES

WOWEXEC is "Windows on Windows". It's the way older 16-bit windows programs get run. You have 1 of these 3 happening: 1)16 bit service trying to get started; 2) 16-bit program in the STARTUP folder; 3) registry entry being used at start time. Check # 2 first, steadily removing items. If it still happens, go to Settings:ControlPanel:services. steadily set items, one at a time to NOT START automatically. Reboot after each change. Be careful not to disble things like keyboard, video, etc.Lastly, look in the registry at HKLM\SOFTWRE\Microsoft|Windows\CurrentVersion. In there are these keys: Run ; RunOnce . Check them for 16 bit programs. As always -- take precaustions when editing the registry!
