Ctfmon.exe error complicated by requiring sign on as administrator

I've read many chats/blogs etc about how to get rid of this error. I go into
msconfig, then to startup and unclick the cftmon but when I have unchecked
this file and am trying to 'apply' and then 'ok', I get a message that I am
in selective startup and must sign in as an administrator in order to clear
it. Have spent hours with Dell too and they say I must back-up everything
and wipe my hard drive and reload my computer. Anyone have a better idea?
Incidentally, this is my home computer, I am the administrator by default.
Hope someone can help today!

what is the problem? is there an error when you boot? can you not
get into msconfig?
 
It kept closing down my system. Thanks for the interest. Dell wiped my hard
drive and I'm back on now.
