Services.exe and lsass.exe any ideas why? -------------------- "Scenes change before my eyes Doesn't matter what I try Close my eyes they disappear Open wide, and they reappear"

It gets into windows then a few seconds later... the CPU usage sky rockets to 100% I mean all that has happened to the system is... Wheni got home from uni, WIN98Se wouldnt boot missing a whoiloe pile of virtual device drivers. SO i went through my format and putting on XP pro... however during install i was often told cannot read from cd... which was almost literally taken of a new pkg, i also tried a scratched up one same msg.. but reads on every other computer fine. other than telling it to "RETRY" finding the file on CD nothing unusual happened. could my HD have anything to do with this? I hear grinding noises which i believe it to be makin.. DK advised to double check that it was HD and not a FAN. -------------------- "Scenes change before my eyes Doesn't matter what I try Close my eyes they disappear Open wide, and they reappear"
