t hungate: I've checked with Kapersky Boot disc and found a loginui.exe not in the system32 and deleted it. It made no difference. I've done a boot scan with Kapersky,and no difference.
I've opened the generic administrator through "safe mode" command, no difference.
I'm running a chkdsk repair now and don't expect much change. Hasn't found anything at 37% of stage 5.
I've done system restore in safe mode and the restore will not complete on several different restore points.
Any more ways to attack this? I'm really trying hard to avoid doing the reinstall thing in recovery.
About the only thing I can think of is a sfc /scannow. But never had much luck with that in the past.

Using Kapersky boot It does find a facerec.dll in a Toshiba folder. So I know that file is there, but dont' know if it may be corrupted.
try scanning for malware with a bootable cd http://support.kaspersky.com/viruses/rescuedisk
***make sure you let it update the virus definitions first!!

None of your suggestions fixed the problem. I tired several boot discs, plus hidden admin account. When looking for files to save, could not find user profiles. None of the explorer programs worked and all I got was the original message.
After three days decided I was trying to rescue nothing, Lets redo the the whole thing. Toshiba has a good reformat process and I'm in the middle of installing the Toshiba drivers now.
Thanks for your help;.
