From malware, the clock/date is wrong to an expired Norton (or other AV).
Tell more and do try System Restore to when it worked.

Bob thanks
The google link that you had provided had the fix and my machine is now working which I am using to reply here.
Sorry but I can't guess what causes this. There are a few too many reasons why Windows can break.

Thanks for the reply. I was able to renew my norton internet security just before it expired. Another I could add is that it takes a long time to boot up after logging in then the screen goes blank thereafter my desktop would appear then the windows could not connect to the system event notification service. Where could I locate the system restore?
