I am currently running Defrag and am going to run chkdsk /r, but hopes arent high! I do not completely want to upgrade ram but will if need be.I also copied good winlogon file from another computer onto mine but it says "Winlogon is in use" I have more than one winlogon file! I AM GOING CRAZY ABOUT THIS WINLOGON ERROR!!! Recently had XP Spyware 2011 virus attack my comp. so thinking it damaged my winlogon file! Someone, please help me!

I have not found an easy fix. Since your a partition on your mac I'd try the install windows over the top to refreshen files. This fixed my issue. Are you running bootcamp or VM Ware? You may want to get VM ware since you make a snap shot of a clean windows install/setup and save it for times like this. This has saved me more than once. I use VM Ware fusion on my Mac Book Pro. - Mike Hi,

I started getting the "Winlogon" can not read memory error on Monday. I had made two changes to my system in the last week, 1, I changed my router to a wireless/wired one and purchased and installed a new wired/wireless printer. I wasn't happy with the wireless printer and my PC kept trying to logon to the wireless lan so I switched everything over to wired. I started getting the winlogon error after all that, not sure if it had anything to do with that.

When booting my PC into XP, get a Winlogon error and ask to send error rport to MS. sometimes I click on send and others I don't. Was able to continue to work but if I try to use Standby or Shutdown, get the Winlogon memory read error with the "click on OK or cancel" Tried the Services "ignore" as mentioned in previous posts, didn't help much. I also rebooted into Windows 7 and did a chkdsk /r on the XP Pro drive, no errors found. I tried several times to restore my system to an earlier day but no luck. I finally found after a search that some antivirus software blocks windos system restore. Disabled my Norton 2011, did a system restore to a couple weeks ago and my Winlogon issues are history. Sorry for the long winded stuff but I figure more is better than not enough info. Anyway, I have a Mac Pro running Snow Lepoard, XP Pro 32, and Windos 7 all installed on their own drives.
