Hi Paul, never seen this before, but did you setup FIPS somehow?

Is it booting up OK?
Hi BD,
Thanks for the reply. I'm a little new to the Mac community so please be patient. Sorry but I don't know what FIPS is. I was using the Mac 2hrs previous and everthing was fine. This particular time the Imac booted in Corecrypto Kext and just hung. I had to turn the Mac off with the button. It has booted ok since
About a month ago I had a new hardrive fitted, someone has said that during the fitting, it is related to a bad solderd joint, any idea's?

Hey, no worry, feel free to ask... & Welcome btw! 🙂
As I understand it it's used to securely communicate with mostly governmental department, some Universities & Businesses... you never used it knowingly?
Bad solder joint & millions of other things could cause this.
AFIK, you should only get a coercrypto message if you set it up.
Sorry to say, but I think you may have to have it looked at in person, but...
Open console in Applications>Utilities, check the system log for the date/time of the last problem & the Startup right after that for clues.
Might try the search bar for...
crypto
what is corecrypto kext started mean?
