MSGINA.dll
I removed Novell from my laptop and started to received errors for
NWGINA.dll. I read an article that says replace the GINA.dll key from NWGina.dll to MSGINA.dll which a copy was located in C:\Windows\system32. I did just that and now when I try to logon to my laptop I am able to get to the login screen and type the password but after that nothing happens. My wallpaper appears and that's it no, shortcuts, no programs, no start menu. PLEASE HELP! |

You don't need to change the GinaDLL value to MSGINA.DLL. If GinaDLL value
is not present (default), XP uses the MSGINA.DLL The Default Windows Logon Interface May Not Appear After Installing Third-Party Program http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=302346 Important: Note that you need to delete the GinaDLL value itself, rather than setting blank data to it. -- Ramesh, Microsoft MVP Windows XP Shell/User http://windowsxp.mvps.org "AJ" wrote in message ...

Hi AJ,
"Logon User Interface DLL Msgina.dll failed to load" error message after you install the MS04-003 security update: http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;836683 The msgina.dll (Graphical Identification and Authentication dynamic-link library) should be listed in C:\Windows\System32 - Application extention. This can happen if you installed PCA, VPN Cisco Client, etc. Normally removing any of the above, the msgina.dll is replaced. Check here for gina.dll, ginamsi.dll, nwgina, or CSwgina.dll if either is listed, remove it, reboot. Start/Run/Regedit HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\WinLogon. In the right pane, remove the entry for (XX)Gina.DLL. Or...
