XP Home SP2
I get the following error dialog popping up when I start my
machine:

Fatal error
Failed to delay library mscorlib.dll (Win 32 error: 193).
This program can longer run and will now terminate.

Any idea what this is and how I can fix it?

Hi,

Isolate the cause, use the steps outlined here:

mscorlib.dll is part of .NET. If you do not need .NET for anything,
uninstall .NET. I did.

My HP printer enabled a .NET account during installation.
After uninstalling and reinstalling my HP software the error
message went away.
I had some files get corrupted on my machine, and I think
that was one of them.
