Seems Winblows created another problem for itself. Hope one of the fixes works for you.

The so called update replaces the working version of this file with an older version. The only problem is that you'll nedd something like ERD Commander to boot into the NTFS and gain file access.

Replacing the ntdll.dll or/and ntoskrnl.exe did not work for me. But try it insted. You have to boot from Recovery Consol buy using the Windows CD. If that doesn't work, what I did is run fast repair. Run it twice. It maybe an outdated driver that you did not have an issue until you install Visual Studio.Net which updated your system. Service Pack 4 is out. You might want to update to it as well. Good Luck.

But did you know that on a windows 2003 server disk or and XP Proffesional Disk that you can boot & go to recovery and get a dos prompt. Allowing you to copy anny required files to the local hard disk in this case I just used copy a:ntdll.dll c:\winnt\system32\ntdll.dll the pc will now reboot without a problem Thanks again for you previous knowledge On Thursday, July 17, 2003 at 12:53 am, Some Guy wrote: >You can add me to the list of people who have benefitted from this fix. > > [Reply or follow-up to this message] re: Possible solution for ''Stop Code 0x00000071 SESSION5_INITIALIZATION_FAILED'' Wednesday, August 20, 2003 at 6:52 am Posted by DK (1 messages posted) Saw the same problem on a Compaq E500.

I replaced it with v11.5. PCAnywhere is a strategic product for my clients.

It had XP SP2 running at the time. After reading various suggestions out there, I guessed I was a victim of corruption of one of the important Windows files. Since I'd planned on installing SP3 anyway, I downloaded the full version of the service pack (300+MB worth), booted into safe mode, and installed from there. After which the system booted up fine. So this is an option for anyone not already at the latest service pack. The SP will overwrite all of the Windows files with the new SP version, so you're killing two birds with one stone.
