Arun 795 Report post Posted May 13, 2006 Its not a virus/spyware, but this is what I found while searching for it, hope it helps in your case... I noticed recently (on my new installation of Windows) that a file named "dvxa_sig" kept appearing on my desktop. My initial inclination was that it was possibly some kind of trace of a malicious element, but upon a quick search, I learned that it was simply the result of not having the latest codecs installed. To get it to stop appearing, install the latest Windows Media Player version or download a codec pak such as defilerpak (a previous tip of the day, found at http://hellninjacommando.com/defilerpak/). This will end the annoyance of the ever-appearing text file. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arun 795 Report post Posted May 14, 2006 You do seem to have a Graphics Card, so try to have your Hardware vendor to figure it out for you. Anyway, you can try downloading and applying this patch from Microsoft Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
