Login process has failed to create the security options dialog

Running Vista Ultimate
The desktop goes blank, the mouse cursor is visible and movable but I cannot
right click and get any anything to happen. The keyboard does not produce
anything except an alt-ctrl-del which brings up a dialog
Titled:
Login process has failed to create the security options dialog
With a dialog message of:
Failure - Security Options

I have seen that others have had similar happen but have not seen any
solutions or causes posted.
Anyone here know how to deal with this?

TIA,
Chris

RE: Login process has failed to create the security options dialog

More than likely this happens because you have a non-Vista compatible
security suite installed. Have you installed some kind of
firewall/antivirus/whatever suite? If so, which?

Re: Login process has failed to create the security options dialog

I have Symantec Security Client installed.
I run the 64bit version at work and have not had any problems with it. The
problem machine is a 32bit.
If I get the thing to boot again I'll uninstall Symantec and see what
happens.
Thanks,
Chris

I found the problem and it was not due to Symantec Antivirus.
I ran the Western Digital Diagnostics and it revealed that the S.M.A.R.T
data had errors in it..
I didn't look into exactly what the problem was but replaced the drive.
I haven't had a problem since and I've been using it for several weeks now.
The original problem was repeatable in several installations. For whatever
reason, the problem with the drive did not cause problems with Windows XP
but did cause problems with Vista.
A new C drive and life is good.

Chris
