Re: Lsass.exe - System error

Unfortunatelly I can't log in safe mode as just before log in screen comes up
error message pops up and restarts computer. Same also happens if I try using
"Last Known Good Configuration". I've tried all of the options listed on F8
and none of them work (same happens for each). There is just no way to log in
as it restarts just before windows log in screen shows up.

Can I use cd/dvd instead of floppy as on my new computer there's no floppy
drive, is there a way to remove the virus without logging in?

Please help.

Thanks.
