What seems to have solved the problem was to use regedit and delete the keys that pointed to it (in CurrentControlSet, if you don’t know where it is, just do a search in the registry for AVG7CORE.VXD and you will find it).
AVG Free 7 REALLY gets under one’s computer skin!!!! Sheesh!

You can fix it by running a registry scanner like CleanReg which we describe in our Registry Cleaning Tools post.

CleanReg will look for Registry entries to missing files and get rid of them for you.

Computer boots OK after hitting enter on the 3 missing files. Any help please?
Thanks,
Pete
