Came back from holiday, started pc and after while xp message poops up saying pc needs to shut down due to failure in the Remote Procedure Call. Also says it is shut down by NTAUTHORITY/SYSTEM. I cant stop this message and have to reboot over and over again. So I traced it with ctrl alt del to winlogon.exe but I can't do anything about it...
Anyone has a clue here? If needed I can give the exact message, but I only got like 1 minute before it shuts down....
