Since got Hit by a virus several week go I am getting an error message each time I bootup. The Message says "Long Filename Backup-Bad command line format".
Does anyone know how I can correct this.
I did an over the top reload of Windows 98SE, this cured another problem I was having but not this one. |

It could be a bad command in the Autoexec.bat file or in the Win.ini or Sys.ini file.
Can you post a copy of what's in your Autoexec.bat file?? maybe we can figure out what is wrong. |

Jack,
The only thing in the autoexec.bat file is the envrionment set commamd for the sound card and a load high command for the audio driver. It must be is either the sys.ini or win.ini. I will look through them and see if I can see anything abnormal.
Thanks

Jack,
I have discovered that if I go to msconfig and turn off SULFNBJ off on startup the message goes away. I have restored SULFNBK.EXE from the Windows CD, no difference. I attempted to restore SULFNBJ.EXE from the Windows CD but I get a File not found message. I wonder if SUFFNBJ is a self generated file. If I try to run either file from the command line I get the "Bad command line format" message.
Any more ideas? |

I'm not sure what that file is. Try renaming it to oldsulfnbm.exe (or whatever the file name is) and then restart windows and see what happens. It may be a file that windows generates and then it may be a file that is not really needed. If windows doesn't start you'll have to start WIN98 in DOS mode and then rename that file from a DOS prompt (or start windows in safe mode and then rename it through file manager if you can't run dos command line commands). |
