lsass.exe problem on bootup

[rheologuy]

Just bought a pre-owned Dell Inspiron 6000D, running XP. On first power-up,
after what appears to be a normal boot-up, it displays a message window
headed "lsass.exe System error". The error description says, "When trying to
update a password this return status indicates that the value provided as the
current password is incorrect." It never asks for a password to be entered,
so this is puzzling.

Aftger displaying this message it reboots again, displays the same error
message again, reboots again, displays the same error message again, reboots
again, etc., in an infinite loop.

I checked the password settings in Set-Up and note that no passwords are
set. Thanks for any help

I'd suggest asking this in a newsgroup related to Windows XP.

This newsgroup is for questions about security in Access, the database
product that's part of Office Professional.

Hi,

Sounds like a virus infection.
Get an antivirus software.
