Will Not Boot Fm CD-ROM
Windows XP Home - I'm getting LSASS.exe error, failed to initialize
(0xc0000005) with only OK option. When I click OK, system halts with black screen and cursor. HD light goes off and no othr activity. I am trying to just reload O/S but can't get it to go to CD. I've set BIOS boot seq to the IDE CD-ROM device vs HD, but system will not load fm CD. System does not give Press Any Key To Load fm CD or anything, just goes straight into startup where I get LSASS.exe error. I've tried pressing F12 to access boot options, select CD and still nothing. Only thing I could think of is bad CD, but I have two and have tried both. Any help will be greatly appreciated. KenP |

KenP Sure you have CD as FIRST boot device? -- Geoff ExploitEd Wisdom and experience come with age, they say, but I do wish I could remember the darn question |

Since you know the CD you have boots other systems and you've set your boot priority to the optical drive first, you know the problem is either with your optical drive or motherboard. Easiest thing is to swap out the optical drive for a known-working one to test. Malke -- MS-MVP Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic! http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/#FAQ |

HD light goes off and no othr activity. LSASS is the name of a WinXP routine: but http://ask-leo.com/what_are_lsass_ls...o_if_i_am.html says "The Sasser worm is the most recent and one of the most virulent viruses to impact Windows-based systems. Unlike previous outbreaks, Sasser doesn't even need you to use email or even be at your machine to infect your computer and continue spreading. It exploits a recently patched vulnerability in something called LSASS.EXE." -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada) |
