"Lsass.exe - System error"

I get this error warning when windows start and it says something about
passowrd not being the same (can't really read it) and it restart my computer
and then the same happens...

?

Also, is there any way that I can connect 2 computers and move some
important files to another computer?

Thanks
 
Also...

Just tried to use my xp cd's recovery console and it asks for administrator
password (I should be able to just press ENTER) but it says "wrong password"??

2 hours ago I used it to repair "ntldr is missing" and it worked fine
without password?

Somebody please help!

I know it's a lot of questions but since I've repaired "ntldr is missing"
everything else has gone wrong!

I'll be forever grateful if someone could give me some pro. assistance!

Thanks
 
Ok, I managed to read it, what it says is:

"lsass.exe - System error
When trying to update the password, this return status indicates that the
value provided as the current password is not correct"

And then it restarts again.

Please help.
 
You have a virus. Download Stinger to another computer and place it on a
floppy and then set the write protect tab. Some viruses disable the
anti-virus programme.

Download Stinger from here and run it to make sure that
A-V-disabling viruses are not present on your PC

Make sure you run the anti-virus scan in safe mode.

Boot into Safe Mode:

Try logging on as Administrator. If a password is requested try hitting
ENTER as there is a possibility no password was set or enter the
password was set and you know it. Then you can change the Other Users
password. Another option to try would be hitting the Esc key.

If no go try booting and selecting the Last Known Good Configuration
option.

Good luck.

Unfortunatelly I can't log in safe mode as just before log in screen comes up
error message pops up and restarts computer. Same also happens if I try using
"Last Known Good Configuration". I've tried all of the options listed on F8
and none of them work (same happens for each). There is just no way to log in
as it restarts just before windows log in screen shows up.

Can I use cd/dvd instead of floppy as on my new computer there's no floppy
drive, is there a way to remove the virus without logging in?

Please help.

Thanks.
 
Probably but let's think this one through

Were you also stopped from getting to the command prompt?

When did the problem first start?

What make and model is your computer? What is on your cd/dvd?

If you have to start again with clean installation of Windows XP do you
have valued data etc not backed up to CD etc? In other words what do you
stand to lose? Do you have a Windows XP SP2 CD? What country do you live
in?

How large is your hard disk and how much RAM?

Change Administrator password to a blank with NTpasswd (free) and start
cleaning the system:
