I tried that. But that option is not available in the Setup. I even tried to make a new Installation(advanced) but it just quit half way. There is also no recovery console option in the setup probably because i havent installed it when XP was still running. What else can I do???

Ok I did that. But no change. When I rebooted, Same blue screen and error.

I am sorry But I dont know what is slipstreamed media. I am not able to do a repair install though cause when I access the windows XP installation cd with SP2 given by dell, the only option i get is making a new installation(advanced). So basically, I just copy a winlogon.exe from the CD and replace the one already in my computer. Right???

My OS is windows Xp. the link said for a windows 2000-based system. are they the same?

running regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\mmcndmgr.dll corrected the error and I was able to open mmc. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/296241 gives these steps to correct the error To determine whether this certificate has been removed from the system, follow these steps: 1. Locate a Windows 2000-based computer that exhibits these symptoms. 2. Click Start, click Run, type mmc, and then click OK. 3. In the Microsoft Management Console, click Console, and then click Add/Remove Snap-in. 4. In the Add/Remove dialog box, click Add. 5. Click Certificates, and then click Add. 6. Click Computer Account, and then click Next. 7. Click Local Computer, and then click Finish. 8. Click Close, and then click OK. 9. In the console tree, double-click Certificates (Local Computer). 10. Double-click Trusted Root Certificate Authorities, and then click Certificates. 11. In the details pane, locate the No Liability Accepted certificate. If the certificate is missing, follow the steps in the "Resolution" section to export the certificate from another workstation and import it. I am able to open mmc and go until step 4. But there is no CERTIFICATES in the add/remove dialog box. I only have Activex control Disk Managment Folder Link to web address How do I get certificates?

The error led me to this link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/296241. When I tried to run mmc, i got the error, mmc failed to initialize because it was installed correctly or because a portion of the registry has been corrupted. make sure file mmcndmgr.dll is registered by running " regsvr32%systemRoot%\system32\mmcndmgr.dll"

I am not able to login at all. But I am able to get some access by Booting from a USB with BartPE. when i try to run sfc from command prompt, I get the error Windows file protection could not initiate a scan of protected system files. The specific error code is 0x000006ba [The RPC server is unavailable]

Can anyone help in correcting this error.? STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error} The Windows Logon Process system terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0xc0000135 (0x00000000 0x00000000). The system has been shut down

Thanks Thats a great help.

Hi, I know this topics been discussed here many times. But please be patient with me and help me here. I am new to computers and am unable to understand or implement most of the steps given in the other threads. Heres my problem: My laptop is a dell inspiron 1150 with windows xp sp2 and Bios version A06. I dont have a working cd drive or any floppy drive in this. All this time I have been using an external Cd/DVD drive. A few days ago, I got BSoD Stop: c000021a {fatal system eror} The Windows Logon Process System process terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0xc0000135 (0x0000000 0x00000000). The system has been shut down. The Bios allows me to boot from External USB storage drive. So i am trying to find a way to make a USB drive bootable. I tried BartPE but I got some warnings saying some .sys files are missing. I have an IBM thinkpad from which to work. But it has lots of restrictions on it as it belongs to my office. So can some one plz plz tell me what to do in simple steps. P.s. I have some important information on the laptop and would like to avoid formatting it. I think the culprit for the BSod is some windows updates i installed a few days ago. Is there anyway to access recovery console and uninstall them so I can boot again.
