Winlogon.exe 100%%cpu usage help

[jay20]

HELP my laptop runs with xp service pack 2. Every time i start up it goes into dead slow mode, ie. 30 minutes just to load. TTask manager says winlogon.exe is using 100% cpu but wont let me close it. Have searched net for answers but all seem to say do a sys restore or do a virus scan, Problem being my laptop wont let me do anything. RRReally need help with this have job interview on monday and everything I need is stuck on the laptop.
