Win 2k error

About 40 - 50% of my boot up's I get this error on the desktop in a small pop up window.

svchost.exe has gernerated errors in explorer.

1) What is svchost
2) What can be making this happen
3) How to correct it.

Thanks

Lee
 
svchost.exe is a generic host process name for services that are run from dynamic link libraries (dll files).
any number of things could cause this (including a couple of semi-nasty viruses)
check the event viewer to see if there is more info there
Are you running Win2k, XP...?
try scanning for viruses after checking the event log
if that doesn't help, try stripping the system down to bare essential hardware and reinstalling the hardware one piece at a time with non-beta drivers (driver corruption sometimes causes this error)
