Platform: Windows XP (WinNT 5.01.2600)

According to the logs, your machine is not SP2. It has no service packs. Did you copy the tcpip.sys from an SP2 machine?

Please verify which version of XP the troubled machine is.

For the moment., rename tcpip.sys_old back to it's original name
When right clicking on my computer then going properties & in the general tab it says Windows XP Pro Version 2002. I believe that is a SP1. I remember when my freind gave this machine to help him clean it up. When I first started it up windows update was trying to update to SP2 but could not at time due to viruses..The search results found a copy of tcpip in the C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download\16b2c96a0c41f4dfdb4d3cc228a4f819.
OK,

I copied it & pasted it then restarted the computer. A window popped up stating Windows - Virtual Memory Minimum Too Low In the box below it says Your system is low on vitual memory. Windows is increasing the size of your virtual memory paging file. During this process, memory requests for some applications maybe denied. For more information, see help. Then a second box popped up WLAN_Cfg & in the box is Win32 Error. Code: 2. There were 2 other windows that popped up but could not see what they said.

Sorry.. After clicking ok in the first window another popped up that says. Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library in the box it says Runtime Error! Program C:\Program Files\Grisoft\AVG Anti-Spyware 7.5\gaurd.exe R6016 - not enough space for thread data
No, I copied it from C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download\16b2c96a0c41f4dfdb4d3cc228a4f819.
Then pasted it to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\. Then restarted the computer . In the drivers folder there is now tcpip6, tcpip.sys_old & tcpip. I will rename tcpip.sys_old to tcpip.sys. But I have to do it in safemode.
Not necessary to go to safe mode.

Rename the current copy of tcpip.sys to tcpip.sysB

Then rename tcpip.sys_old to tcpip.sys
Sorry,

I had already renamed it back to tcpip.sys and left the other one as tcpip as it shows now. The Windows - Virtual Memory Minimum Too Low window popped up again as well as the WLAN_Cfg but now says Out of memory.
Well, that shows it wasn't related to tcpip.sys. Launch Task Manager & look at the processes running. Do you see any that references WLAN_Cfg? If you do not see WLAN_Cfg, how about WLService.exe? End Process on it & see if that stops all these error messages.
Go to Start > Run - type in CMD.EXE to bring up the command prompt

Type in this line & press enter

SC STOP WUSB54GSCSVC

Then type this …

SC CONFIG WUSB54GSCSVC START= DEMAND

See if that helps
