Hello All,
I have a windows xp laptop that started acting up after setting up mcafee personal firewall. After setup the firewall found GMT which I removed. Now it will only boot up in safe mode. I have run adware and spybot and cleaned the system.
The one clue I have found is a entry in the event viewer.
--------event viewer----------------
the following boot-start or system-start driver(s) failed to load:
AmdK7
Fips
IPSec
MPFIREWL
MRxSmb
NetBIOS
NetBT
RasAcd
Rdbss
Tcpip
For more information, see Help and Support Center at

Also, i have run hijackthis for diagnosis. Here is the log:
