hey people! I can't alt ctrl del and even right for the task manager. This happen when i tried to install the lasted driver for my grahpic card. I even reformatted my harddisk, installed new copy of my windows. I tried to prompt out the task manager before I install the older version of the driver, it came out. But soon after i installed the driver for graphic its back to sqaure one again =(.
Any suggestion? or is there any 3rd party programs which act like task manager?
Thanks!

thanks for all the helping. I think the problems lies with this worm_vb.bxs. I ran a virus scan at http://housecall65.trendmicro.com/ but it cannot remove it.
May I know how to remove it 100%?
Thanks alots!

Your registry has been altered. My research suggests that most people having this problem have it due to a virus. Are you sure the driver that you are using isn't infected with a virus that is making changes to your window's registry? The reason is so that you can't open the task manager to shut down the virus process.

So far as MCR has advised, I don't think it makes much difference if you say Alt Ctrl Del or Ctrl Alt Del inasmuch as you hold and press the Ctrl and Alt keys down then press Del, or, press all three keys simultaneously.
Are you sure it doesn't work? For some reason or other, somtimes I have to do this several times before it finally catches.

1st of all you can press "ctrl+shift+esc" instead of "ctrl+alt+del"
2nd there are many 3rd party software apps that do the same thing, or repair task manager including -
XP emergency utils

Process Viewer

ProcessXP - by Microsoft & Sysinternals, probably the best

Shift-Ctrl-Esc will also pull up the Task Manager.
If you want a more powerful Task Manager, try Process Explorer - available on my freeware site - http://www.missingbytes.net

Well maybe ctrl alt del is not allowed for some reason.
