SQL Server Error message when starting XP
 
When I start Win XP before I can enter my password to log on I get the
following message and don't know why.

= "SQL Server could not find the specified name instance (MICROSOFTBCM) -
please specify the name of an existing instance on the invocation of
sqlserver.exe
If you believe that your installation is corrupt or has been tampered with,
uninstall then re-run setup to corrct this problem."

My question is what is this refering to and how can I fix this to stop this
message from appearing ?. I know at one point I was doing a mail merge in MS
Word from Excel and that is the only instance where I have seen SQL come into
the picture on my PC

I would appreciate any help
