Steve;
Try starting in Safe Mode with Command Prompt.
================
To start your computer at a command prompt
[[Print these instructions before continuing. They will not be available
after you shut your computer down in step 2.
Click Start, click Shut Down, and then, in the drop-down list, click Shut
down.
In the Shut Down Windows dialog box, click Restart, and then click OK.
When you see the message Please select the operating system to start, press
F8.
Use the arrow keys to highlight Safe Mode with Command Prompt, and then
press ENTER.
If you have a dual-boot or multiple-boot system, choose the installation
that you need to access using the arrow keys, and then press ENTER.
Notes
NUM LOCK must be off before the arrow keys on the numeric keypad will
function.]]
================
Delete tnotyoc.dll there.
