BuffaloHelp 24 Report post Posted June 19, 2005 Dr. Watson debugger appears because you "killed" Dr. Watson from running fully.The symptom of START button not responding may be that you have some spyware installed that is still loading, well after Windows GUI interface has loaded. Check to see if you have spyware with various spyware removal tools.Another way of checking is access your task manager and see which program is using up all your CPU usage (you can sort by clicking on CPU column).

rvalkass 5 Report post Posted June 19, 2005 I have seen this problem a few times before. Try temporarily clearing the start up folder (cut and paste everything to a different folder) and see if that helps. Large programs like Norton and even MSN Messenger can take a while to load.
