hi,
for some reason every time i boot up, i get a screen saying system 32 with loads of folders in it, i close it and my pc works fine, it`s not a problem just a bit annoying, it`s never happened in the past.
Does anybody know how i could stop it happening ?

This appears to be a known problem, and there's a Microsoft article about it, including a remedy, here:-

Hope that helps.  :)

P.S.  This could also be the symptom of a virus, or some other malware, so you might want to make sure your anti-virus software is fully up to date, and run a full system scan.
