So, mysteriously my computer started locking up at random intervals, and, among other things, I've found that the following drivers are apparently set to run automatically on startup (courtesy Autoruns), but the drivers are missing:
IpInIpIP in IP Tunnel Driver / File not found: system32\DRIVERS\ipinip.sys NwlnkFltIPX Traffic Filter Driver / File not found: system32\DRIVERS\nwlnkflt.sys NwlnkFwdIPX Traffic Forwarder Driver / File not found: system32\DRIVERS\nwlnkfwd.sys
Startup repair didn't do it from the disc ... does anyone have any bright ideas on how to load those drivers back without doing a restoration? Alternativley, if anyone is willing to just hunt down and email me the drivers, I'd be very much obliged.

Hi,
None of those drivers are native to Vista. Have you been trying to use the IPX protocol for gaming by chance? What did you install, and how?

Hm. The games I have installed are Guild Wars, Starcraft, and Half-Life. If its not a driver issue causing the lock-ups, do you have any idea of what it may be?
