Watch our Welcome Guide to learn how to use this site. Joined Jul 23, Messages My partner has been doing a lot of work for me on her Toshiba satellite laptop as she can type far quicker than I can. I have to get a portfolio done for a new job and we have spent about three weeks on it. We have just installed a wifi card to it and xp needed to load service pack 2 the computer had not been online for years.
I stupidly didn't do a back up. I ran all the programs, got rid of some junk. Computer was working fine until we switched it off. Now when we switch it back on it gets as far as the welcome screen, when you click on the account it says 'loading your personal settings' and then immediately says ' saving your profile'.
Have tried to boot in safe mode but it still happens with both administrator account and other account. I have tried to google it and apparently some spyware programs can cause problems with the userinit. Toshiba just said use your restore disc which has been lost we have disc 2 though and microsoft want to charge me just to 'ask' them if it is possible to sort it out. I have used BartPE to look at the drive and hopefully get the data off, but it is on the desktop and I can't access it.
Please anyone help. Joined Apr 7, Messages 4, Thanks guys. Instead of using one of the default options for modifying passwords or user accounts, type " software " to edit that hive. Type ' 9 ' to enter the command line based registry editor. Restart your computer and log in — problem solved. Best Answer. In Look in , click the drive, folder, or network computer and folder that contains the hive you want to load. Click Open.
Hi, sdra There is a good chance that other malware is present on the machine as well, perhaps even rootkit s. I recommend the following: - Research sdra You should use autoruns. To do this you may need to hook the hard drive to another machine, or boot to a different OS like BartPE or similar. There should be no unexplained ports open, or unexplained connections to strange ip addreses.
Part of the re-install process needs to be a format of the physical drives attached to the server. Keep in mind that it is common now for a virus to hide itself using a kernel-mode driver.
In this case you will not see the virus file using traditional methods windows explorer, autoruns, etc. Usually you will see evidence of the driver using RootkitRevealer. To check this possibility, please use the following steps:. Double-click the value Userinit and check the data. If an executive application called twex. Run an update anti-virus software to scan the server completely.
