New strange item in startup: KernelFaultCheck???

[KBD]

i just noticed this new startup item when looking through RegCleaner today, its called KernelFaultCheck, RegCleaner identified file name as %systemroot%\system32\dumprep 0-k. Can anyone tell me why it appeared in startup and what purpose does it serve?

I don't know for sure but it may have something do with my startup problems after a recent windows reinstall. Once in a while i would get this message after starting up the pc: Windows could not start becauwse of a computer disk hardware configuration problem. Could not read from selected boot disc. Check boot path and disk hardware. Refer to windows and hardware manuals or something like that. This could be an unrelated issue, but i thought i'd mention it since this is the only oddity i've been experincing lately.

You can disable it in msconfig.Type in msconfig in the RUN box,then hit ok. Once that opens, go to the Startup tab at top. look through the list for the "dumprep.exe".

Dont think it is malicious just used for debugging I think.Could be related to your other problems,drivers etc.
