Session initialization failed
I've got the blues of this BSOD. I got inside the recovery with disc Console but I need help with orders. Apparently I don't speak this language. My stop message is 0x00000006F.
If you mean that you get a STOP error message that says something like:
SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED
STOP: 0X0000006F (0XC0000034, 00000000, 00000000 00000000)
This usually means that the smss.exe file is missing - probably (actually deleted) quarantined by antivirus/antimalware program (Avast, AVG or avira! first thoughts).
You can recreate the problem whenever you want, and then learn how to fix it.
There are several different messages of SESSIONx_INITIALIZATION_FAILED and they all mean something different.
Generally not too difficult or difficulty however.
For this one, I would do this:
After starting in the XP Recovery Console, you should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS. If you are not in the C:\WINDOWS folder, you have another problem you fix first.
In the Console of recovery at the C:\WINDOWS prompt, enter the following commands:
CD system32
c:\windows\system32\dllcache\smss.exe copy
Answer in the affirmative to all messages "Are you sure" If 1 file (s) is copied and then type "exit" at the command prompt (your system will restart)
Depending on your system configuration, you may need to copy the files somewhere else, so if they are not in the folder dllcache for any reason, enter the commands like this:
CD system32
c:\windows\ServicePackFiles\i386\smss.exe copy
output
(your system will restart)
There are other options for this message, but I would start by replacing the smss.exe file.

Satellite L750, webcam integrated - application - initialization failed
I recently got a new Satellite L750 laptop with built in webcam as a gift by my parents, who live in the United Kingdom, so I can stay in touch with them to the Ireland. We had hoped to call each other via video calls, but I can't get the webcam in the laptop for work. I click on camera app Web displays a message saying "Web Camera Application initialization failed; Restart the computer or web camera. »
I have tried to download the driver from the web camera on the toshiba site and have updated the BIOS, but it made no difference.
What can I do to get it working?
I assume that you want to use Skype or some other messenger, right?
For this application, you must not start application pre-installed Webcam. You can even disable the start-up.Can you please check if cam is recognized and listed correctly in the Device Manager and check if some messenger recognizes cam.
Please post comments and we can continue this discussion.

I'm new here so not sure if I'm posting in the right place.
I have a Toshiba Satellite L350 (Windows 7) that I bought in January. Everything was fine until the last two weeks when my webcam suddenly stopped working and when I sign in Dungeon getting a webcam of the message initialization failed, please check your device and restart the computer or the camera.
I went to settings and it says camera works, but it is not. I also have another pop up when I sign saying check Toshiba laptop stopped working (not sure what it is)
Can anyone help please?
Thank you
JanHi Jan,
I had the same question as my webcam didn't work and so I reinstalled the driver for the webcam that could solve my problem. You can download it here:
http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download driversBut I recommend to remove the old version first. Then use CCleaner to clean the registry and then you can install the latest version on the Toshiba site.
Toshiba laptop recording you can remove from Control Panel > Add/Remove programs.

Satellite L650 - camera initialization failed Web
Hello
I have a Satellite L650. I got it for a little less than 6 months and the other day, I turned on the computer to find the webcam pop up message saying "Web camera initialization failed etc... "I have also noticed that the microphone in too no longer works.
I uninstalled it and re installed the driver, and it still does not.
I was wondering if there is anyone who can help or has had the same problem?
See you soon,.
Dylan.Hi Dylan,.
You can use the internal webcam with other applications like Skype?
Have you installed the correct Satellite L650 webcam driver?
What operating system you are using?If you have already reinstalled the driver for the webcam I advise to use CCleaner tool. It is a very nice freeware tool that can check your registry for the old registry keys and delete. If this cleaning software nice s to improve performance a bit and solve problems. Just use Google to find this program.

Initialization failed: couldn't read the boot disk - Acer C720
Hey guys,.
I really hope you guys can help me. -So I got an Acer C720 and using one of the probably hundreds of tutorials out there, I upgraded the SSD inside. I bought the recommended (MyDigitalSSD SC2 Super Cache 2 42mm SATA III 6 G m2 NGFF M2 SSD Solid State Drive (64 GB)). Anyway, the computer froze today so I pressed and held the power button until it stops.
When I turned it back on I was greeted with the warning. "Initialization failed: couldn't read the startup disk ' ideas? I have a few documents on this subject that I really need back. I put the original SSD inside and it booted up fine, but it won't start using the cotyledon. It's barely 8 months! Any ideas on what I can do? Thank you!
