can't boot XP home

J

johnma

I have a a clone running XP Home. During startup the following error
message comes up
"winlogon.exe - Entry Point Not Found. the procedure entry point
AssocIsDangerous could not be located in the dynamic link library
SHLWAPI.dll" options are x out or close. IT IS DEFINITELY WINLOGON.EXE not
winlogin.

After that msg closes the following comes up "User Interface Failure"
"The log on User Interface DLL msgina.dll failed to load. Contact your
system administrator to replace the DLL or restore the original DLL" Option
is restart.

On restart process repeats.

I have interupted the BIOS start and checked it appears ok. Have tried
booting from Windows CD and client supplied restore disc. With CD loaded
get error msg in BIOS " FDC Error"

Machine is AMD Duron @ 1000mHz, has cd, cd burner, floppy and two hard
drives - one 6.5 and one 20 gigs. Has 256M Ram.

I'm thinking virus, but it could be the floppy disc controller.

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
