The past couple of days I get an error message when I boot up. It says "CLI Application has encounterd a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for any inconvenience". I can click off on go ahead and log on but the computer is really slow. Also, is quicktime a part of Win XP? I uncheck it so it does not run at startup, but it rechecks itself at bootup.
Any suggeston on the CLI message and what I need to do?
Thanks.
Cli.exe could be related to an ATI video card, but you should still scan your system for malware.
Quicktime is not part of Windows. It does get installed if you have iTunes/iPod.
I used to have an ATI icon in the tray but it is gone as of Sunday. I have done a system restore and that has not help. I scanned the system for malware and found none. I do not have an ipod, but have a Creative Zen MP3.
So how do I fix the CLI error? Thanks.
Did you reinstall the ATI drivers? Are you using CCC? If so, that requires .NET framework.Quote:

You can uninstall Quicktime if you don't think you need it. If you do play qt videos, try QuickTime Alternative.

I am trying to find the driver install now. Just don't understand where the ATI icon went. When I try to click on it from the start menu, I get the saem CLI error message.
You can try uninstalling, then reinstalling the ATI drivers. If you only want the drivers and not CCC, then use "Drivers only" download.

It would help if you stated which video card you have.
ATI Radeon Xpress 200M Series (I think)
I went to the link and tried to install the drivers but it said there were none compatible with my system. I think my laptop is 3 years old.
Then get the drivers from the laptop makers website.
I found my resource disk that came with the laptop and it has drivrs on there, however when it is almost done with the re-install the laptop shuts down. I did this twice. But I still have the CLI error.
It would have helped if you said it was a laptop in the first place. The ATI Xpress 200M video drivers are typically included in the CHIPSET drivers.
Did you uninstall the old drivers first? Do you have .NET installed or not?
I am sorry, I thought I thought I had said laptop. It is a chipset but I got the same issue from the ATI website, cannot find compatable drivers. I have not installed .Net but will check when I get home to see if it is there, it could have been in an update maybe? I started having these issues after the last microsoft security update. I uninstalled those updates but still have the issues. Yes I did uninstall the old drivers before running the disk. Actually I tried the repair option first that I was given when I was going to uninstall, but that also shut down before it got finished.
Sorry I was not more clear with the description of my problem. Thanks for the help.
For laptops, you usually need to get the video drivers from the manufacturer, not ATI. Each vendor has their own implementation.
Confirm whether or not you are running Catalyst Control Center. If not, then you don't need .NET.
Yes I have the CCC but when I clicked on it last night I got the CLI error.

That's a problem right there. CCC requires .NET.Quote:
Yes I have the CCC
The CCC came installed on the laptop and it has worked fine up until the last couple of days.
I went to install .NET and it told me it was installed but I could repair it, so I did, rebooted and all seems to be fine now. I did not get the CLI error at boot up at least this time.
The other thing I noticed is that is is very slow to boot up or shut down and it has not been this way before. I have only the necessary items checked in the startup menu.
Thanks for the help. Sorry I was not more specific when I asked for help. I know better than to post half info.
There was an update to .NET this month. That's probably what messed up your .NET and CCC.
You are probably right because I downloaded some updates either Sunday or Monday and that is when it messed up. So I just need to not download the update of .NET this time?
I would skip the .NET update and see if everything holds steady.
Thanks Midknyte. So far so good.
