NEED HELP( great computer knowledge probably needed)

[DeadlyBlindness]

hey. i didnt really know where to put this, but it is very bad. Recently i have been having a problem with my computer. I downloaded maple story game client; then the next day when i tried to start my computer it went black and said Lsass.exe error-unable to locate component. i have no idea what it means or what it is. ive been looking on the net for similar cases or how to stop it, but noone relly knows how. Most ppls just restarts their computer every 60 seconds, but mine wont even let me log in. It starts the windows xp start thing, screen goes black, error pops up, click ok and tries again. Idk what to do. pls help.

ps. sry if this is unclear to ppl. idk what it is so idk how to describe it

Can I have your computer for free?

[Zageron]

First don't use txt tlk.

And all you need to do is use a system restore.
OR
Open your computer in safe mode and uninstall maplestory, following a registry scan.

ermmmmmmmm, i think ur computer has a virus. u might wanna check that out. get spyware er something!

[DeadlyBlindness]

rist off...im 14 and dont got a job so like 600$ is not free to me. and i cant even open it in safe mode...so i cant run any programs or uninstall anything.

i looked stuff up on it and ppl say its not a virus, it might b a bug, and often happens after downloads.

[fido123]

Reformat...that always fixes everything...if you don't know how PM me and I'll explain exactly how to do it.

Spyware saved my life and helped me lose over 150 lbs.

[DeadlyBlindness]

i cant load anything...i cant get past the start-up screen. cant get to my desktop or internet..so idk what to do

Ok this dosen't sound good dude..
Your best bet would be to use a system restore CD.
It should have come with your computer and should explain how to use it.
It will erase EVERYTHING from your computer, but if you cant even start it, this is probably your best bet.
Hope this helps

I think your talking about reformation

Also OS = Operating system and only windows can **** you up this bad

[Sullyman2007]

Operating System. Like Windows XP maybe?
The CD should have come with the computer when you bought it, and it's really easy to use. You just insert it in your CD drive (the thing where you put games cd's).
The computer should do the rest.

Edit Fido: Yes, reformation is what im talking about. I didn't think he'd know what i mean though.

[DeadlyBlindness]

ok...yeah its xp....and do you know the name of the disk or what it would b called...i had a friend whose amazing with computers set it up..so either him or my dad has it..otherwise its in my room somewhere

I already told him how to reformat and what your telling him to do is a windows reformat which deletes nothing but the stuff you do want lol...you gatta repartition your hard drive...Oh also I forgot to mention in the PM...when it asks to repartition just delete everything then make a new drive with all the memory it has listed.


AGAIN: DO NOT DO IT THE WINDOW'S WAY...IT DOES NOT WORK

[Fantasticone]

Your first mistake was downloading Maple Story in the first place.

[DeadlyBlindness]

yes it is windows xp. and i had a family friend who is amazing with computers install it..so he either has it or my dad im pretty sure.

EDIT: sry for this post..was same as b4...this comp is kinda bad too

You really think he knows what your talking about Fido? And Reformating completely erases everything from your computer.

Now, I'm looking at mine and it says "Reinstallation CD: Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition."
Talk to your friend and see if he has it.
