best results in resolving event, log on non-administrative account , search http://support.microsoft.com "troubleshooting 1202 events".
user account in 1 or more group policy objects (gpos) not resolved sid. error possibly caused mistyped nor deleted user account referenced in either user rights or restricted groups branch of gpo.  resolve event, contact administrator in domain perform following actions:

1.identify accounts not resolved sid: command prompt, type: find /i "cannot find" %systemroot%\security\logs\winlogon.log
string following "cannot find" in find output identifies problem account names.
example: cannot find johndough.
in case, sid username "johndough" not determined. occurs because account deleted, renamed, or spelled differently (e.g. "johndoe").

2.identify gpos contain unresolvable account name:
command prompt type find /i "johndough" %systemroot%\security\templates\policies\gpt*.*
    output of find command resemble following:
    ---------- gpt00000.dom
    ---------- gpt00001.dom
    seremoteshutdownprivilege=johndough
    indicates of gpos being applied machine,  unresolvable account exists in 1 gpo.  specifically, cached gpo named gpt00001.dom.
    need determine friendly name of gpo in next step.

3. locate friendly names of each of gpos contain unresolvable account name.  these gpos identified in previous step.

    string following "[mapping] gpt0000?.dom =" in find output identifies friendly names gpos being applied machine.
    example: [mapping] gpt00001.dom = user rights policy
    in case, gpo contains unresolvable account (gpt00001.dom) has friendly name of "user rights policy".

4. remove unresolved accounts each gpo contains unresolvable account.
    a. start -> run -> mmc.exe
    b. file menu select "add/remove snap-in"
    c. "add/remove snap-in" dialog box select "add"
    d. in "add standalone snap-in" dialog box select "group policy" , click "add"
