Hi Delly, First you didn't tell us what OS you were running. That having been said, you need to go to the Task manager CTRLALTDEL and loook at your processes. If it is "I" as in Eye, then it is a bug, if it is "L" then it is a windows file. We will need to know this before we can go further. coastie

My OS is windows XP and I'm not able to get logged on .

[delly46]

My computer will not log on the error ocurs when window is supopose to log me on

What about starting in safe mode?

Delly, Lsass.exe is a security program. It sounds as though your login file is corrupted. Have you tried using a system restore point? If that doesn't work, your only option may be a reformat, and Windows reinstall.

will not go into safe mode tried this

Hey mcb, there is an isass.exe ( put the i in lower case to differentiate the difference between the two) that is a trojan. The only real way to tell is by looking at processes in the Task Manager. I agree that the only option appears to be a reformat and reinstall. coastie

Do you have a Windows CD? If so, have you tried doing a Windows repair install, booting to your Windows CD?

[mcbarker]

Coastie, if the login file is corrupted, the user won't be able to access Safe Mode either.

Thanks I will try this

Yep. A repair wold be a possible option as well, if he has a Windows Installation Disk. I over looked that.
