0x80090019 is NTE_KEYSET_NOT_DEF ("The keyset is not defined"). Something
is probably doing a CryptAcquireContext and failing. What the something is
I really don't know. One guess might be kerberos, but it's a guess based on
almost zero information.
Do you have any other clues? Can you boot into safe mode? If so, the event
log should tell you something.
Another option is to attempt a repair from the CD. That's kinda drastic, so
I'd save it as a last resort if you can't solve the problem in some other
way.
