MSConfig Disappears in 1 second

[Nowell Wisch]

When I run MSCONFIG or REGEDIT, the screen appears for
only one second and then disappears.
This began after a hard drive replacement and system
restore on a Sony desktop computer.

Any Ideas what I did?

You are infected by a virus. There are a few that do this.

Hi,
w32.spybot worm disables NAV, Msconfig, Regedit and Task Manager:
