Problem with itune startup.

[Rajesh4mLA]

Hi,
I have XP & P4.
I installed iTunes & I get error message on startup :-
iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close.
We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Anyone knows about this problem & solution for this?

Hello there this is my problem
the problem seems to be with apple quicktime for some weird reason. I've read that itunes needs quicktime in order to run, so i've tried reinstalling quicktime. That hasn't worked.
I've tried uninstalling quicktime, but I get "fatal error during installation" before it even starts to remove quicktime. I used Windows installer cleanup utility (http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;290301) and was able to reinstall it and it still doesn't work. Also, after installing quicktime, I can't get quicktime to run. I haven't tried using a movie file to run or whatever.
Any ideas at all?

One thing that happened to me and a few other people is that iTunes freezes or is delayed on startup and freezes or crashes or delays when importing music or connecting an iPod. The fix for this is very simple. If you have a newer computer the reason it does this is usually because of a problem with your CD drive(s). IDE or SCI bus drives may be interfering with one another.
If you have no virtual drives running, your computer has new hardware, and your Bus Drivers are up to date than the problem is that you have your IDE and SCI drives on the same driver and you need to reconfigure them.

Well I suggest you to download the latest version of Itunes, Run the AV program and then the Antispyware prog... once you are sure you are all clean & install it all over again.
