Also I noticed that my internet is running real slow. Could it be because of this mess? I'll follow the steps and revert back.

==============================================
When the computer rebooted there was an error message saying there is no disc in drive. I am posting the screen shot. Also whenever I log out it gives an error message stating "Userinit failed to initialize as the Windows is shutting down."
Also when I right click on Recycle bin, the Empty Recycle Bin option is greyed out.
======================================
Thanks for the help. Will wait for the next steps.

Your hijackthis log is clean, but you really need to get yourself an anti-virus program and a firewall installed.
Go to Start | Run and type in sfc /scannow and hit the Ok button. Insert your CD if/when requested.

I will do that. The sfc / scannow was fine. Now before we can mark this thread solved if wanted to know the "Standby / Hibernate" option on my computer is missing and why my computer is running slow. Very slow.
I took opened the tower for a mess up of the dust and had also removed the only memory module (256 MB - humour me) cleaned it and then fixed it. The computer response time had increased drastically although there aren't many processes running and there is enough page file memory. Any fix. Other than getting more RAM :)

There is no substitute for more memory :). 256Mb :icon_eek: wonder it boots :D.
Reduce Internet Explorer's cache to 50Mb, clear out all temp files, defragment the hard drive etc.
Not sure what is happening with your standby/hibernate.

@ Crunchie:
Sometimes I wonder the same :P How the hell does it reboot and then I think maybe it is because I got a 512 Mb Video card. :P Lol!!
@ jbennet
Yep everything is installed. I was able to use the option until yesterday before it disappeared.
