    Hi,

    After a fresh xp home installation my machine was running fine.

    I then installed my printer - epson cx3200 printer and my adsl modem - bt voyager...

    Thereafter my machine upon booting and after displaying the xp window hangs before it goes into window AND

    when it gets into windows AVG does not load, I get a "language error" AND

    Sometimes I get missing DLL file or system32 file error...

    Whats happened? How do I rectify this error?

    Please help

    Thanks in advance...

    uninstall epson software. re-install, keep printer unplugged. once XP is running plug in printer (I assume USB?)

    You can also try System Restore to a point before you installed the printer and modem. For post installation problems like this I've found it works reasonably well.
