I turn on my computer and after it shows the black screen with the Windows logo the screen goes black and there is a little window titled Isass.exe Bad Image that says The application or DLL C:\WINDOWS\system 32\DNSAP1.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check against your installation diskette. I click okay and it's just a black screen and won't get to my desk top. I have tried booting in safe, last known good config, etc etc and to top things off i dont have a recovery disc. I am running a fujitsu siemens Sacleo p with XP media edition 2005 would be grateful for any help thanks

Read up and act on our responses to the same question asked 5 years ago in THIS thread. Please post back if no joy. i_Xp/VistaUser

Hi, yep seen the post from 5 years ago and tried all before posting, it still goes back to the same error message and if a i click ok I get blank screen with a moveable cursor. thanks

Repair using cd. "Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10

You might have to contact Fujitsu and try to obtain a recovery CD or floppy disk. There should be a partition on the drive with the recovery image.

There is no recovery partition on a Scaleo P. Gennersales might have one for Media centre. I have xp home & pro recovery disks but not Media Centre Before posting try google. Backup. Use anti virus software.

I've been at this all day now (and its not even my PC - wifes mate!!) Ok heres where I am at. I have contacted siemens - just waiting for a response - yawn! and i have downloaded a boot CD to see if I can fish around with this. its currently doing an Unformat with 34 mins to go and recovered 174988 files to date. Thank you for all posts - very much appreciated. i will keep everyone up todate with progress
