Log on Problem Vista
For some weird reason hubby has suddenly got the following message when trying to log in to his account on the PC: -
Quote:
The user service failed the logon.
User profile cannot be loaded.
|
This occurred following a re-boot due to the odd way the game Grid fails to stop running, trying to start again the game says it is still running even when the game is properly quit.
Fortunately he can access all his stuff via the Administrator but still a huge annoyance.
Help is appreciated.

Re: Log on Problem Vista
perhaps try creating another username and then deleting the old one and see if that works as the game, should be installed for any user to use other than that not sure really.

Re: Log on Problem Vista
Create a new user profile then, rename his account folder while logged in as Administrator.
This is found in C:\Documents and Settings\ (on XP)
Or: C:\Users (Vista)
Then, try logging in on the account. It should then be as simple as copying across any missing data (Pictures/music/Documents etc...)
Some programs may need to be configured again also.
Repairing the profile itself is pointless, not even sure if it's possible.
