I have a Compaq Presario preloaded with WinXP.

Is there anyway, I can reinstall Backweb Application 1940576? If I don't,
there is a annoying Runtime Error dialog box that appears everytime, the PC
boots!
Thanking you

Hi,

Ask HP/Compaq for an application disk or download. Backweb is not native to
WindowsXP, it is an add-on used by some manufacturers that provides
customized support, or is used to automatically update the system by
supplied AV programs. Personally, unless I knew I needed it, I would just
disable it and leave it disabled.

I would NOT re-install BackWeb. Instead, remove the startup entires, either
in the Start Menu -> Startup group, or Start -> Run, type msconfig, press
enter, goto the 'Startup Tab', un-check (if) any entries are there.
