HELP!!!!! Stop:c000021a

This afternoon my computer just shut off and I didn't think much of it. But
when I tried to restart I got "STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error} the
windows logon process system process terminated unexpectedly with a status of
0xc0000135 (0x00000000 0x00000000) The system has been shut down."

I have researched all afternoon for a solution but can't find one. Anybody
heard of this error. I am running XP home SP2 and I only have access to the
recovery console. If there is a way or recovering withouth formating and
reinstalling that would be great.


Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Elie

Unfortunetly, no. Since recovery console won't allow me to execute this I
can't use it..... unless I am doing something wrong.

Check to see if you have bad hardware by doing a parallel install (into
another directory). If you have NO errors, and windows boots up ok...

make a backup of your original windows folder.
xcopy the contents of the parallel install into the original.

do a 2nd repair option install of windows xp.

Having the same problem. My difference is that I'm running XP Pro can't
get past the blue screen of death. I set the CD to 1st in the boot
order, no help.

Ideas please.

Okay, I've looked everywhere on the Web for the answer, and all I've
found is typical Windows "trouble-shooting" (that term now means
rubbish documents, thank you Microsoft).

Here is the way you do it.

Take the hard drive out.
Put it in a different PC.
Make this drive the slave.
It helps if the two PC's have similar settings etc.

There will now be 2 drives in the new PC.
The crappy drive that won't boot (blue screen of death drive) is
now the slave in a different computer (just another storage drive).
If it doesn't want to be the slave, only connect it's power cord
(the big one) when the PC is already on. You won't be sucked
through a portal, don't worry. You might need to reboot though.

Download SyncToy 2.1 or whichever version they bring out next.
Install it.
Run it.

You'll need to "pair"/"sync"/"compare" 2 folders with SyncToy.
These 2 folders are... Windows\System32 (on good drive) and
Windows\System32 (on bad drive). Run the synchronising thing so it
puts in any dll's that are missing on the bad drive.

Once it is done, put the bad drive back in the original PC.

It should start ok, and at least you won't get the blue screen
reboot. There might be a few graphics drivers and printer drivers
or whatever that fail or give errors, but at least you have access
to the PC and the mighty Google search. So fix up the little bugs
and you'll be fine.

I'd usually tell you not to bother using the leech site "techarena.in" -
but - it's about where you belong with advice like that. While I have no
doubt what you say may work in whatever world you live in - it is *not* the
best solution to the issue and will come back to haunt you (albeit more
likely the system will be replaced shortly after anyway - much like this
original posting from 2004 you tacked onto. *grin*)
