Administrator logs off OK. Subsequent non administrator user can't log on as computer crashes after hour glass momentarily appears. Computer crashes. Pressing ctrl/alt/delete has no effect, mouse is still active. Computer has to be switched off/on to clear problem.
In reverse, a non administrative user can log off and then an administrative user can log on ok.
With 512 M ram installed, Ram icon always shows at least 200M free.
Hard disc at around 20% of 160G.
I believe this problem appeared perhaps after SP2 installed.
As I do not want to restore to very early date to see if this would solve the problem, so any suggestions would be welcome.
