located in the dynamic link library msvcrt.dll "

I press ok and then get this error

lsass.exe - Entry Point not found
"The proceedure entry point _resetstkoflw could not be
located in the dynamic link library msvcrt.dll "

Use system restore to go back to a point in time before you downloaded the
update.

Trouble is i cant get into windows to restore
i found some info in the knowledge base and copied the
msvcrt file into system32 directory using recovery console
as it said. But get same error when i boot up.

I used the windows recovery console and had a look in
system32 directory and the msvcrt.dll file was gone. Why
would it be deleted every time i boot up ?

looks like its going to take a reinstal to fix it.
