• Error: wininit lsass.exe windows server restart, event ID: 1000, 1001, 1015, 6005, 6006

  Hi everyone, I recently joined in a Banking Corporation as a leader of IT below support that I explained about an error that is impossible to fix.

  This company is running windows server 2008 r2 standard 64 bit OS sp1.

  HP proliant DL380 G7 intel xeon
  system processor: intel xeon E5620

  This company is facing this problem since April 2014 to cultivate the date, but the question not yet fixed because there is no COMPUTER administrator in this endeavour to maintain this server. So, in this company, I'm the only guy with COMPUTER knowledge and my management was waiting for me to fix this error and to run the server without any problem.

  The last few months I've corrected several server issues related in this society as windows update, windows daily backup, SQL server backup, user permissions, disk space low and network troubleshooting and equipment computer issues etc...,

  But come to this lsass.exe I am unable to solve this problem I tried many ways to research online, but not yet fixed. Below you will find the details.

  *) fix for windows server 2008 R2 Standard sp1

  After the failed to install installation
  Fix for Windows (KB2545850)

  *) Tried to use the system tool
  But failed to solve problem

  *) I tried this command at the command prompt
  sfc/scannow
  result
  Full check of 100%.
  Windows resource protection did not find any breach of integrity.

  *) I also tried to change the registry of one of the web links of dell values, but there is no change at all.
  http://www.Dell.com/support/article/us/en/19/SLN291309/en

  *) I thought installing the fix and some other updates in safe mode only to try my luck, but when I tired to start the server in safe mode it takes a long time to start in it. But, I'll try again if this issue is going to fix through safe mode then please advise me on this.

  So to come back to this question, at the time of the restart, a small window will pop up as below.
  Windows has encountered a critical problem and will restart automatically in a minute. Please save your work now.

  *) I tried this in shutdown command prompt cmd - to stop this judgment but does not any.

  *) I've tried many ways to solve this problem, but none of them worked for me even I tried to upgrade from sp1 to sp2 but could not do so for the following reason:
  https://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=17669

  After downloading the software from the link above and when I tried to install error appear below.
  This service pack does not apply to the version of windows running on this computer.

  It is the only question that is impossible to fix. So, I need expert help to resolve this issue as soon as POSSIBLE.

  Note: I can not reinstall the operating system on this server because it runs many applications on the SQL 2008 database and also it is already configured with many services and I don't really know how many applications do I need to take a backup and how to configure manually. so if I reinstall OS and if I'm bored configurations or settings and then it will be difficult for employees who work on these applications. So I don't want to take the risk of doing as I said I am new to this company.

  Additional information: this sever when ever it will pop up as server will restart in one minute then it restarts to 3 times without any gap, then after an interval extended from 3 to 4 hours, then it will follow even as I said above. To understand better, I'll give you this good example: If the server restart to 09:00, then 2nd reboot will be at 09:02 and the 3rd reboot will be at 09:04 and then after 3 to 4 hours apart, as about 13:00 it restarts again for 3 times vice versa.

  Even I understand that I have to reinstall the OS to fix this stupid problem which is like a nightmare for me, but right now, I can't. So, please help me to solve this problem without reinstallation of server operating system.

  I expect the best answer to my question that will solve my problem without any problem to this server.

  Below the five examples are the main reason for my server restart. If you need anything that either more information please advice me I will answer according to your instructions.

• Lsass.exe - Unable to locate component. This application has failed to start because the oleaut32.dll file not found

  Original title: oleaut32.dll xp

  My system XP pro/sp3 does not start normally, without danger or with the original sys disk. I get a message
  Isass.exe - Unable to locate component. This application has failed to start because the oleaut32.dll file not found. reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
  However, I can't in the operating system to do a re-install.
  Any suggestions?

  If c:\windows\system32\oleaut32.dll is missing, you will see messages like this:

  Lsass.exe - Unable to locate component
  This application has failed to start because the OLEAUT32.dll file not found.  Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

  If the missing file is the only problem, you might have to do a reinstall to fix.

  There should be a copy of Oleaut32.dll in the c:\windows\system32\dllcache folder, so if you can get in the XP Recovery Console, you can just replace it - then you are going to have to start on something to do.

  Once started in the XP Recovery Console, you must enter this command at the prompt:

  Copy c:\windows\system32\dllcache\oleaut32.dll c:\windows\system32

  If the file is not in the dllcache folder (it should really be), depending on your installation, this command can work:

  Copy c:\windows\servicepackfiles\i386\oleaut32.dll c:\windows\system32

  Answered in the affirmative if invited to replace any existing file.

  I don't know what the Microsoft Support Engineer think that KB307545 or KB922371 will help you.  I think that the MSE is just throw a few things to try and some links.  You don't describe symptoms consistent with the need to use one of these methods.   I would say the MSE has never seen this problem before, made no attempt to reproduce the problem, and has no idea how to fix this.

  If your CD does not start in the Recovery Console, or if you don't know what kind of CD do you have to do a CD of XP Recovery Console and boot on it (no media XP required).

  Here's how:

  Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

  If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

  This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

  You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

  The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

  xp_rec_con. ISO

  Download the ISO from here:

  http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

  Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

  http://www.ImgBurn.com/

  When you install ImgBurn, DO NOT install the Ask toolbar.

  Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

  http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

  It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

  You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

  When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

  Press any key to boot from CD...

  Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

  Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

  Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

  You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

  You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

  C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

  The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

  For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

  After replacing the file, remove the CD and type 'exit' to leave the RC and restart the computer.

  You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

• Error: lsass.exe. system error.

  Original title: "Lsass.exe" is there no solution?

  I'm runnng Windows XP, I made the recovery of the PC/3 times now. After recovery, I have to go through the difficult task of all updates and so on. I get usually far in the process, then right after a Windows Update (you are prompted to restart) I get the error message "lsass.exe. system error '. The PC will not boot in any mode to the current and therefore the recovery of the PC again.

  The restoration of the first PC was due to a problem of System32 hal.dll.

  I don't know if my original problem of system32 or Windows Update is triggering my problem of Lsass.exe.

  After reading these forums, it seems to be a problem for many people and there are no answers. A lot of people (like me) thought it was a (i) sass and not a sass (l) so there is even a ton of problems listed under isass.exe.

  It seems that any update of Windows after the SP3, triggers this problem. So I delayed install this update, but how long can I keep that upward?

  Any ideas how can I fix?

  Hello
   
   
  Method 1.
  Try the steps listed in the article below and check.
  Error message that you receive when you restart a Windows XP-based computer: "unable to locate component lsass.exe.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/922371
   
  Method 2.
  If the problem persists then install the updates one by one and check what particular update is at the origin of the conflict.
   
  I hope this helps.

• Lsass.exe system error object name not found, unable to start Windows in any mode.

  I am working on a friends computer who has a problem, it does not boot in any mode.  This includes everything and all alternate Mode without failure, last known good Configuration and other options in between.

  The computer is an old one but running Windows XP with Service Pack 3 and is updated from a few months ago.  He had a program to update AVG as well as several anti-spyware installed SpyBot, Adaware, and Malwarebytes programs.  Sometimes, the computer had a virus or spyware that was eventually deleted by the user with these programs in the past.

  I searched the internet for at least 8-10 hours looking for solutions without real success.  If not all of you with this problem, most eventually do a full reformat their hard drive.  This owner does not have a recovery disk (lost?) with their computer for that and they have important documents that they would be saved.  A solution (last resort) is to remove the hard drive and put it in my computer to copy documents on a cd/dvd.  It is very likely to buy a newer computer at this stage anyway, but needs these documents

  -----------------

  What happens is after the start screen of Windows, but before the Welcome screen, a box with the lsass.exe system error error: object name not found appears.  Clicking on it just restarts the computer to restart the process.

  I used a boot Norton cd to test the virus in case it might be this worm Sasser, sometimes associated with this error and it is clean. so I really doubt that this problem is associated with that.  Also used checks and drive to scan to check for errors.  Don't check, there is no way to go back to a previous restore point or configuration.

  Tried to use the recovery console out of my Windows XP installation disk: in this case I tried to develop a copy of the file lsass.exe on the hard drive, but it could not extend the file.  I tried several times with the same results.  Don't really know if that would have helped it worked.

  At this point, I'm really at a loss on how to continue.  Any suggestion would be appreciated and thanks in advance!

  Your friend's computer is not likely to be infected by the Sasser worm that this virus is many, many years now. Extract the data on the drive and do a clean install/factory restore of Windows. You can usually buy the mftr computer recovery media. (if an OEM brand like HP, Dell, etc.). low-cost. If you decide to reinstall Windows, test the material first to make sure it's healthy. Or skip reinstallation if your friend is going to buy a new computer and just take the data for him.

  http://michaelstevenstech.com/cleanxpinstall.html - Clean install - how-to
  http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Reinstalling_Windows - what you will need at hand

  1 remove the drive and put it in a box of USB drive or use a USB adapter. Attach it to a computer that is running a working XP/Vista/Windows7 installation. Use the work of Windows Explorer to copy the data to the hard drive of the system to the rescue and burn data on cd or dvd, or copy it to an external hard drive. I prefer not to do it if I know the drive is infected because he has a chance to infect your host system. In these cases, I use #2 below.

  2. you can start the computer target with a Bart PE (XP only) or Linux Livecd such as Knoppix or Ubuntu and retrieve the data in this way. This has the additional advantage to tell you if the problems you are experiencing are hardware or software related because if the computer behaves perfectly in Linux, you know that Windows (software) is the culprit. Conversely, if the computer behaves badly under Linux, you will know that there is a hardware problem. This is general information on the use of Knoppix for the recovery of data when you do not have Windows:

  You will need a computer with two cd records, one of which is an engraver of CD/DVD OR a USB thumb drive with enough capacity to contain your data OR an external USB hard drive. Download Knoppix .iso image file and create your bootable CD *. If you do this in a previous (XP or Vista) operating system, you will need the third burning like Nero, Roxio or freeImgBurn software (Windows 7 can burn .isos natively). Burn as an image, not in the form of data. Then boot with the CD that you created and the Windows files will be visible under Linux. If you want to burn CD/DVD, there will be a Linux burning program to use.

  * If your computer has only an optical drive and you want to use this drive to burn data or need to test drive, you can create a USB bootable Linux instead of a bootable CD. This site will show you how to do it-http://www.pendrivelinux.com

  I don't know yet how to get the BIOS.  I'm not yet technically strong (but necessarily be).

  How can I download necessary patches with a white screen?

  I have never tried a reinstall of XP.

  I have the following CD:
  * Reinstallation CD MS Win XP Home Edition (SP1 included)
  (Currently up to SP3)
  * Application: To reinstall Dell Tools System Software
  * Dell Dimension Resource CD
   
  Dell has 2 partitions: C:\ (the system, Windows software, etc.) and D:\ (all my data, etc.)

  So... There you have it.   And, of course, would sincerely appreciate your help.

  And Yes... I am committed to give once I have something to give back.

  It's great to have someone on "this side of the fence!   (my son is still laughing - %^$#@!)

  trikericy,
  Unfortunately, there are several things that can cause this problem, including viruses.  Usually by pressing F2 when a Dell system is powered, you will have it in the BIOS.  But you may need to check with Dell for your specific model.

  If you are able to boot from reinstall drive and enter the Recovery Console, you can run the following commands to see if they will help to clarify this.

  Chkdsk /r

  sfc/scannow

  If the recovery disc provided does not offer the console recovery or these elements do not disable upward, then you can perform a factory restore to reload Windows.  You will need to check with Dell on recovery options they offer.  However, since you have 2 drives, it looks like all your data will be safe and it is only a matter of reinstalling programs.  If you do a factory restore, then I suggest updating Windows before reinstalling applications.

  Hope this helps out.

• lsass.exe system error

  I searched and could not find that anything related to this issue.  I get an error message when I try to launch VMware Fusion.  He'll be trying to open Windows XP and then end with this error message:

  Lsass.exe system error

  The specified image file did not have the correct format, it did have an initial MZ.

  I'm under VMware Fusion 2.0.4 on a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X 10.5.7

  When I click OK on the error message, it starts trying to open Windows XP and ends upward, the error message in an infinite loop.  Everything worked fine until I closed my VM again. I usually just hang, but I closed this day there and then closed merge and completely off my MacBook.  So the next time I turned on my laptop and I tried to run the merger is when I received the message.

  Did I leave any important information necessary to solve this problem?  I'd appreciate any help I can get with that.  I have one Windows program I really need to use and I can't seem to him.  Thank you very much!

  Looks like you may have been affected by the Sasser virus.  Search removal tools, see if you can start the Windows client in safe mode (click in the VM window immediately after power on, and disappears from the display of the POST, hit the F8 function key to display the Windows Startup menu, select Safe Mode).  If not, probably the best to restore your virtual machine from a previous backup (you did one, right?)  It's so easy with VM, because they are simply a set of files which can be easily compressed/archived in a single backup file).

• Problem of storage space satellite L305-S5962 HARD drive when installing XP

  Hello

  Last week, I ordered two TOSHIBA Satellite L305-S5962 for my children and finally happened yesterday.
  I was so glad that I found all drivers XP needed for it on Toshiba USA website, however something weird happened when I went to install XP over there.

  It came with preloaded Vista and while under Vista, I checked the HARD drive space it is said about 250 GB (240 - ish), but during the installation blue screen boot XP it read C 131 GB only partition.
  So, if you round up to about 130 GB, where the other 90 GB's?

  This problem has happened to these two Toshibas, and read the two HDD substantially the same.
  In Vista, it reads close to 250 GB, but when installing XP blue screen (once I turn off the AHCI setting in BIOS) it reads at 131 GB. Is this some kind of driver issue? or to issue OS with AHCI?

  On the Toshiba site there are two HARD drive drivers, are a .exe and the other a .zip file.
  I tried both in the XP installation CD of nLite, but it does not help.
  It still reads GB 131, so now I have no idea what to do, or maybe I have something wrong during the splicing of nLite?

  In any case, if anyone has some insight on this problem, please let me know.

  Thank you!

  -G.P.

  P.S. Here is the link to site from USA, for XP SP2/SP3 drivers, HARD disk drivers.

  Even once, if someone has seen, thank YOU!

  > I checked disk space HARD it is said about 250 GB (240 - ish), but during the installation blue screen boot XP it read the partition C 131 GB only.

  The HARD disk is partitioned into 3 partitions.
  The first partition contains OS preinstalled; Vista
  The second partition contains the image of Toshiba HDD and the last third partition is hidden. It s a small partition created by Vista and it contains the backup files. These files can be used if something goes wrong with Vista OS or if Vista needs to be repaired.

  So I guess you've seen only the first partition that contains the operating system Vista

• Satellite A10 - lsass.exe constantly reading & writing HARD drive

  Hello!

  Two weeks ago, I asked here a piece of advice from my Satellite A10 has bombarded me with messages on "bad clusters" and "not being able to write this or that" on my HARD drive. I thought that my HARD drive was too old and bad functioning, and maybe it should be replaced.

  Now, I know that the cause of my problems is Windows XP.
  As soon as he starts lsass.exe this horrible process is constantly read and write something on the HARD drive.

  As a result, it keeps my HARD drive so busy that all programs that I use can not work properly: when they want to write something on my HARD drive it must wait and wait. And I think this incessant and door reading wrote on the poor HARD disk.

  I googled for a solution (it seems that there are other victims who are unable to get rid of the unwelcome lsass.exe) and I tried to prohibit files indexing and system recovery but these solutions do not work for me. Is there another remedy known to this naughty lsass?

  I have Windows XP Toshiba Recovery Disk and lately this lsass were so widespread that I can not download updates for XP SP2 or SP3. So, if there is a good solution, it must be for the Virgin XP SP1...

  Help, please!

  Hello

  Lsass.exe belongs to the Windows operating system and it s a Microsoft file!
  It is a path to the file: windows\system32\lsass.exe

  I found these details:
  + "lsass.exe" is the local security authentication server. It checks the validity of the user on your PC/server logons. It generates the process responsible for authenticating users for the Winlogon service. +

  I put t think that the file can be removed or should be removed.
