Windows XP won't logon do to licensing error 0x80090006

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

Hi,

I'm receiving the following error and windows will not allow logon:

"you are having a problem that is preventing windows from accurately
checking the license for this computer." Error #0X80090006

I have tried the following with no resolve:
-Safe Mode, RAN regsvr32 regwizc.dll , and regsvr32 licdll.dll
-Tried Q310794, but no \cryptography\ hive
-Booted to recovery console from CD, ran fixmbr, succeeded, but no
resolution still

The computer was working find the day prior. No new installed
software/hardware. Very strange. Please advise.

Thanks,

Mike

"But this is what happens with copy-protection, it does nothing good
for the end user, and all it really does is screw up things for the
end user."

Exacly!

You're Welcome. Glad you got it taken care of without having to do a
