Comment:
This notebook does not boot properly it come up with a error message can't find Isass.exe It doesnt allow safemode, recovery disks etc dont fix the problem. My fear is that because of the font used in the start up process Isass.exe is really lsass.exe a lower case L rather than a capital "I" that later is a virus, that shuts down pwl files and drops to this isass.exe so the initial login doesnt happen. I need to get around it without having to wipe and start again. I cant seem to access anything. anybody got any good ideas? I cant run a antivirus program cause I cant boot properly.

Cool thanks for the headsup
I actually went to view those other postings and not one of them came up with a solution to get rid of the virus. suggestions to do a repair of the OS dont work and I cant log in to use anything else I cant bring up a command line or anything

I love deadlines. I love the whooshing sound they make as the fly by.
