Today when I turned on my computer I discovered that it stopped right after the loading of the windows XP screen, went blank, then a small box appeared that said:
lsass.exe - Application error
The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005) click ok to terminate this application

I clicked ok and then nothing more happened. The computer stayed at the blank black screen.

I have tried starting the computer in safe mode and other modes but I still Keep getting the same message and being stopped at that screen.

I do not have a windows XP CD nor do I have a "Boot disc" but it would be wonderful if someone would be able to assist me with this issue.
