    Welcome to Windrivers Max

    Go to safe mode and uninstall powertoys

    What did you want to achieve with power toys?

    Thanks NooNoo for your fast post of help.

    I did try the uninstall all ready, but it did not work.
    it was still trying to load the target.dll .
    I edited the reg and killed all keys with target.dll.
    and that did not help.

    then I tried the msconfig / boot and unchecked the box
    for it. So now the error on boot up is fixed.

    thanks for your time NooNoo.

    start, run, type in
    sysedit
    click ok

    have a look in win.ini and system.ini - that may be where it's being (erroneously) called from.
