Anybody Seen This Before?

I logged on to my laptop earlier and tried to launch Morrowind, but my laptop froze, so I had to restart. I shut down, booted back up, and tried to log on when I got this error

 

.

 

It sits at the "welcome" loading page for ~15 minutes then gives me this BSOD. The HDD is clicking a little bit more than usual (click, pause, clickclickclick if that helps), but I'm not sure if that's the problem. I tried reseating the RAM and HDD, but to no avail. I turned it off and back on (duh) as well, which also didn't help. The laptop is an Acer Extensa 5230e with a 160GB 5400rpm HDD, 4GB of Crucial RAM, and a Core 2 Duo T9300. It's never done this or anything like it before, and I'm past my 30 day period to go back to Windows 7. What should I do?

You have to go into the Registry Editor. Google the problem and you'll find a fix.

I can't get into the Registry if it won't log in, and I did google it, and none of the cases I read of had any correlation to me. They dealt with PC's on networks.

Can you boot in Safe Mode?

Not sure, but my dad was able to sign into his account. He tried one of the the registry edits that we found on the internet, but something was different and he couldn't get it to work so he just gave up

hardly ever see this on home pcs. or should i confirm that?

 

are you running win7 professional, and the laptop is set to domain login? is the account you are trying to login to using a domain login, or local login?

 

If yes for the above, normally i would recreate the profile by deleting/renaming the c:\users\loginid folder, and then modifying the hklm/software/microsoft/windows/windowsnt/profilelist, look for one entry that has the affected loginid and delete it. let the dude login again using a fresh profile.

 

there are tools out there in the wild that will help enable the administrator account if its disabled, if you dont have any logins to get into.
