Login & Immediate Log Off

[resqtech]

I have been working with a beast of a computer for quite some time trying to recover it after a virus infestation. I am able to boot the machine up, with damaged display drivers by the appearance, but after I log into the Admin profile it immediately logs me off automatically. Is there something I can do to actually get into the profile and begin to reinstall the drivers? It is a Dell running RAID 149 GB HDD mirror and XP Media Center Edition.

Are you able to sign in as an Admin while in safe mode?

The machine will not boot in safe mode. When attempting to boot into safe mode with networking it gives a blue stop screen.

What's the stop code it gives? If you can get into safe mode then hopefully you'll be able to clean the system much better.

Give us the STOP error code as well as the words in all caps at the top of the screen (i.e. IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL).

If the screen flashes too quickly for you to find out what the error is, then do the following:
After the POST screen and before Windows loads, press F8 until you get to the advanced boot menu. Select the option that says "Disable automatic restart on system failure".

I was able to get into the system by using a third party bootCD and can access the system files this way. It is software called ReImage if anyone is familiar. I am trying to get the software to recover the system files, but it hangs during the analysis portion of the repair and won't get past. Any ideas?

You will need to do a Repair install of Windows. Some of the system files were corrupted and no 3rd party solution will help.
