Mr gsa

purchased a Brother MFC 9700 printer/fax
When my computer loads (Windows 2000), a popup messager
appears:

Run-time error '-2147417848 (80010108)':
Automation error
The object invoked has disconnected from its clients.

Does anyone know what I need to do to remove this message
from appearing everytime the PC loads?

I called Brother & they confirmed it's a Microsoft issue
(they proved by making me disconnect the printer/fax from
the PC & the message still appeared).
 
It could be a lot of things. You'll want to stop everything that starts at
logon and by process of elimination hopefully you'll find it.

Natively you can; Start\Settings\Control Panel\Administrative Tools\Computer
Management(Local)\System Information\Software Environment\Startup
Programs|View|Advanced, then in the "Location" column, you'll find the path
to the "Startup" location either in the "Startup" directories or from the
registry's "Run" keys.

%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
%USERPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

You can delete the shortcuts that you no longer want to run.


HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

You can delete the string value for the program you no longer want to run.

or copy msconfig from Windows XP
