I recently purchased a new pc from gateway with Vista Home. I set up myself as the admin. and then set up 3 other users. All of a sudden one day, I could not get access to admin. to authorize some changes. I also could not sign in to administrator. It give me the message"user profile service failed the logon, user profile cannot be loaded. I tried to read up on a bunch of things to try and have tried most of them. I tried going in to safe mode. When in safe mode, it wont let me log in as administrator but it did let me change the password. As soon as I go out of safe mode though, it kept the new password change but still wont let me login to administrator.
I now cannot make any changes at all or basically do anything. Because its always asking for authorization to do it. Since the computer is fairly new. I have continued to use my old computer and not store anything on it. Because I am afraid the only solution may be that I have to uninstall vista and start over. Please tell me there is a better solution. Thank you.
