Well this is very odd. Have you tryed scanning for viruses etc because something may be triggering this to happen.

go to run, type msconfig..
go to the startup tab..
then untick the one with the path C:\Windows\System32

Try Autoruns and see if it's there. If it is, remove it. If it's not, rey to reinstall systemworks.
EDIT: stigmata was faster, but the reinstall suggestion stays.
