OS? This used to occur on windows 2000 when the user profile was improperly formed. The solution was to make sure the EVERYONE permission to the c:\winnt folder was applied, and this was accomplished by booting into the administrator account

I have not seen it occur in windows xp....is there enough space?

Hello - yes it is Windows 2000... Would it be because of the drivers I installed? I was able to login as administrator directly after I installed them and all appeared ok...

Hello,

All sorted. Apparently it was a coincidence! My manager disabled the roaming profile on the server and then my colleague was able to login fine...

No worries. I hate it too - especially when what happens isn't your fault because people still associate you with the mistake!

ps,

My colleague is into martial arts too :blink: so even scarier if something goes wrong :whistling: lol!
