i'm using windows xp professional (microsoft windows version 5.1 (build 2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.090804-1435: SP3))

each time i start a windows, the error box appear..it say:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
SVChost.exe - Application error

the instruction at "0*00000000" referenced memory at "0*00000000". the memory could not be "written".

click on ok to terminate the program
click on cancel to debug the program
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i've try to turn off automatic update, but the error box still appear...

also try the instruction given in this website (http://www.ehow.com/how_4480978_fix-svchostexe-application-error-windows.html) , but it's still won't do any good..

what should i do, i do search on the web.. but i cannot found any problem similar (instruction code) to mine....

I've seen similiar errors before, and others with your problem, not specific, but please try the following

1.Go to the START menu
2.Right click "MyComputer" icon
3.Click "properties" then the "Automatic Updates" tab
4.Choose "turn off automatic updates"
5.Reboot your computer
6.Go back to start menu and in all programs go to "windows update" you have to be connected to the internet.
7.Manually update windows.
8.Turn your automatic updates back on.

Let me know if that is any help please
