HI,
I am running windows 2000 (unsure of service pack) on an IBM thinkpad 570e.
A couple of days ago I attempted to install a pcmcia wireless card, there was
an error when installing the software for it and when i restrted the laptop I
had two error messages regarding lsass.exe i think, i pressed enter (on both
boxes) and then a box appears telling me the system will shutodwn initaied by
\ and that it will shutdown in 60 seconds. And then says
c:\winnt\system32\lsass.exe terminated unexpectedly status code 128. After
that every time I rebooted that those three boxes appeared.
I don't have a cd dive, just a floppy, using the floppy I managed to copy
lsass.exe (from the windows cd) into the c:\winnt\system32 directory, now
every time i reboot I get the box telling me the system will shutodwn in 60
seconds. I can't even get into the user sign in screen, as soon windows loads
that screen appears and I can't do anything, it just shuts down again. I have
the 4 windows boot disks but they haven't any help as of yet because i don't
have a Cd drive. Any one out there have any ideas, much appreciated if you do.
Regards.

Steve,
Your post does nothing to solve the problem, I can't log into windows so
can't use any of tools or suggestions.
