Guest Account Enabled And System Crashes

Mar 31, 2008

I have had this computer up for 30 days at a time but when my sister comes to visit I turn on the guest account and log out of my identity and let the computer sit at the choice between my account and guest is and I can't get through a night without Vista Home Prem. crashing. I have SP1 installed and besides this problem I have not had problems like this. Why would enabling the guest account cause crashes? Is because I have programs running in my profile and that causes a conflict? This is frustrating as you can imagine. I looked at events and at 10:30 there was a faulting application: LVPrcSrv.exe faulting module USER32.dll. Then at 12:02 the previous shut down was unexpected. There is 1.5 hours between the fault and the message about unexpected shutdown?

Setting Up Guest Account

Apr 23, 2009

Just turned on the Guest Account for the first time. When I switch to this account, the desktop comes up with a bunch of misc blanked-out icons which it will not allow me to delete. And there's a blizzard of "Windows cannot open this file" messages - for shortcut links and for ..exe files including rundll32, issch, eullauncher, sttray, etc. How do I clean this up and start the Guest acct with a blank desktop?

Guest Account Automatically Logs Off

Jun 30, 2009

I tried to search this but to no avail, My Guest and any other standard account I create, logs off automatically, and is not usable. Me thinks that this resulted from my attempt to erase the password of the guest account by back-spacing in the password field, until no characters and hitting enter or whatever. I still have admin, but no standard accounts will now work. I have Vista Starter (waiting for Win 7) How can I fix the standard account functionality?

How To Make Drive Not Accessible To Guest Account?

Jun 8, 2008

I have an external drive on my vista machine that has gives "Users" full control. I just found out that the guest account is part of the "Users" group. Is there a group that does not include the guest account? Basically I don't want to have my backup drive accessible to the guest account. Is that possible without replacing "Users" with each individual account?

Reset Guest Account To Standard User?

Mar 23, 2008

I managed to change the Guest account to administrator type. Tried to amend the type back to standard user with other administrator accounts without success. Even tried the hidden administrator account. The Guest account does allow the standard user option to be selected but nothing happens when this is applied, it remains as an Administrator. Anyone have any idea how to reset the Guest account to a standard user

New Email Account: New AOL E-mail Account, Clicked 'Add E-mail Account' At The Bottom Of My 'Windows Live Account'

Aug 24, 2009

I have a Windows Live Mail account and a Yahoo account and they both show up on the left hand side of my Window Live Mail account so I can choose which account I want to use or, for example, which inbox to look in. At the bottom, also on the left hand side of my Windows Live Mail account, it shows 'Add e-mail account', which is what I want to do with a new 'AOL' account and I want it to show on the left hand side like the two other accounts.

So I made a new AOL e-mail account, clicked 'Add e-mail account' at the bottom of my 'Windows Live Account', then I put in my new AOL e-mail account and password where it showed me. Then I clicked next.

The next page was all about my email server. When I did this before with a new e-mail account, it was all filled out automatically for me, but this time, all the blanks were left open and I have no idea what to fill in. I believe once I have this information, the AOL e-mail account will automatically then show on the left hand pane of my Windows Live Mail account below the other two accounts.

Blocked Administrator Account: System Retore Error

Jun 20, 2009

I tried to change my SID number (Security Identifier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) with a program called newsid.exe (NewSID v4.10) and it closed out before it was done. Before this happened, I had only one account named 'Rhodes' with administrative privileges and no password. Then I restarted my computer and it had an account named 'Rhodes' and an account name 'Other User'. I clicked on Rhodes (it still had no password) and it went to my desktop but the desktop looked like it was when I first got it, at factory default settings. Everything I had downloaded was gone, including my music, programs, and pictures.

All my settings had been reset to default. And administrative rights were gone. The first thing I did was look at my Users in Control Panel and all I saw was 'Rhodes' and disabled 'Guest'. I didn't see 'Other User' here so I went and looked on my C Drive and found the 'Users' folder and checked in there. It has a 'Rhodes' and a 'Rhodes.RhodesPC'. If I click on 'Rhodes' it tells me I don't have permission to access this folder. If I click on Rhodes.RhodesPC it brings me to the folders of the account I am currently on (the 'Rhodes' without administrative privileges). I have tried creating a new administrator account a few different ways (including an elevated command prompt in safe mode) but I can't get anything to work. And I can't get to the hidden administrator account in Vista, I tried that too. What I'd like to do is gain access to my old 'Rhodes' account, the one with administrative rights. I tried System Restore but I get the error 'There was an unexpected error: Class not reigstered (0x80040154) Please close System Restore and try again.

Turned Of Guest User Which Was The Administrator

May 8, 2009

So I logged into his account and changed the guest account into the administrator account. Then I did something silly and made his account into the standard account.

Then I changed my mind and thought, I'd turn off the guest account and keep just his account as the main one. Anyway now I have turned it off and I am stuck with his account as a standard account and I cant turn the guest account back on as I have realised I left some files on there I needed! DOH! I have tried to access the guest account files and it says I do not have permission!

Recover Guest Profile, Unable To Login

Aug 14, 2009

how I got my system in this condition. I have been attempting to enable the Guest account on but when I do turn it on, I can't logon as Guest. I have looked at “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsNTCurrentVersionProfileList” and I don't see the Guest account at all (SID missing). I don't know what the value should be nor how I can recover it. When I try to logon as Guest the system comes back with: Unable to Login due to "User Profile Service" failure. "The User Profile Service service failed the login. User Profile cannot be loaded." It seems that there should be a way to recover these predefined or standard logins. I don't want to do a system restoral as I have my system the way I want it (except for this problem with Guest) that I want to avoid any possibility of mistakes.

Important For To Have UAC Enabled

Sep 28, 2009

O/S Vista Home Basic 32 bit. I had some IE problems which were also interferring with my printer causing it not to print. MS/MVP, PA Bear, helped me solve the IE problem in the IE group, which in turn solved the printer not working problem. Now I just have 1 little glitch. The printer will NOT print as long as UAC is enabled but WILL print when UAC is turned off. I did post this question in the printer group 4 days ago but have had no responses.

So my question now is this: Is it important for me to have UAC enabled? In the household there is only 1 computer & 1 printer (both wireless) & I am the only one who knows how to use the computer. I am not worried about people tampering around with my computer in my home. I'm a little foggy as to exactly what UAC controls but from what I can make out it seems it only involves preventing someone from making unauthorized changes to my computer.

Offline Files Cannot Be Enabled.

Dec 21, 2008

I am running Vista Ultimate SP1 on my laptop. The Z: drive maps to an Iomega StorCenter NAS. I can read/write folders, files, etc. with no problem. When I disconnect from the network, I can still see the Z: drive. The folders that I made available offline are accessible and there are placeholders (folder has an X on it) for folders that I did not make available offline.

When I connect back to the network, I would do a reboot and I can see all of the files on the Z: drive again. Given this, it appears that Offline Files is enable. Or, is it? In the Control Panel / Offline Files / General tab, I clicked on "Enable Offline Files" and I got the message below............

VSync Recommended Enabled Or Disabled

Dec 6, 2008

I think the title says it all - I mostly play games on my system and I would like to know what this function really is and what performance impact it has when enabled (besides frame cap). I noticed that when it is disabled scene on the screen sometimes gets 'desynchronized' (i.e. upper half of the scene is like somewhat 'nudged' compared to the lower half), especially when the player moves fast or camera makes rapid movements (reckon that is why it is also called 'vertical synchronization'). So the question is - should it be enabled or disabled ?

WinRAR Score With The TLB Fix Enabled Is A Sickening 80 Vs 454 Disabled

Jan 26, 2009

WinRAR = 454 w/TLB fix diabled Avg scores for my system 1,100 Call Juarez = 30 FPS Avg score = 45. Dont know whats wrong. Could it be a dead core? How can I check?

1) My WinRAR score with the TLB fix enabled is a sickening 80!!! vs 454 disabled. So I am certain that the fix was disabled at my score of 454.

2)Regarding number of active cores:
a) When I run task manager I see only ONE window for CPU in performance.
b) Running CPU-Z V1.49 shows ONE Processor ONE Core
c) CrystalCUPID V 4.15 shows only ONE of One cores (Code name Agena?) I should see 1/FOUR
d) In Vista Sidebar using mCPU Gadget: Shows Four cores HOWEVER
only ONE ever displays activity. I tested it by really loading up applications and Never saw activity of the other three cores!!!......

Network Speed, Enabled Jumbo Frames And Nothing Changes

Mar 8, 2010

As I continue to test the network speed I am truly baffled. My local area connection shows 1.0Gbps. The computer on the other end shows the same but when I go to download to the other computer I get speeds between 16-20 MB/s. I know there are many variables but holy cow. What can I do? My problem is still that there seems to be a problem between my one computer running vista 64bit and windows xp pro on the other one. I have enabled jumbo frames and nothing changes. The computer is an AMD quad core computer 4400+. That should be able to handle what I was feeding it. I changed hdd and that did not make a difference except to give me my needed space for the computer I was needing. The gig lan is a built in lan to the mobod of the computer. I don't have a NAS yet as I tried one but it was not very good. Would buying a pci lan card be the way to go for this computer as I will use it for alternative backups etc. Could a new nic card in each computer maybe make a difference? The cards would be exactly the same. The one mobod is around 6 years old the other maybe 4. The lan that I have are on the mobod. Just a thought.

Graphical Corruption In High-dpi Mode With Aero Enabled.

Mar 23, 2008

If i increase my dpi to anything above 96 dpi (and reboot) i will get graphical corruption after a few minutes. The corruption is limited to "glass" areas. For example the start menu may appear as a sheet of pure glass. Buttons on the taskbar, could appear all mached together. The Alt+Tab panel won't paint itself. Ossasionally an entire window's client area will be transparent, rather than painting anything.

If i kill and restart Explorer it fixes itself, for a few minutes. If i disable Aero (switch to Windows Vista Basic these) it's fine. If i kill the DWM.exe (which disables Aero) it's fine. If i set it back to 96dpi and reboot, it's fine. nVidia GeForce 6600GT. Any drivers you like, Windows Update's WHQL, nVidia direct, same problem..........

Cant Default Startup Programs Enabled Thumbnail Viewing

Was using the program explorer to try to cleanup what gets loaded and probably went too far too fast. Didn't realize on of the default startup programs enabled thumbnail viewing. Got tired of the popup messages that there were disabled programs and chose to delete blocked programs. Anybody know which one that is and how I get it to load up again? It is faster though:>)

Nvidia 6100 Graphics And Zuma Deluxe Is Enabled

Feb 6, 2009

Setting up a new PC here (eMachines H5270) and installed Zuma Deluxe. The game is playable but the motion becomes quite jerky whenever the on screen action becomes more intense. Also the mouse leaves droppings when Zuma's custom cursors option is enabled. The processor is a 2700Mhz Athlon and the graphics chipset is years newer than the ATI card in the PC this one replaces. Has anyone else experienced these symptoms with Zuma? Is there a way to fix this or am I seeing an incompatibility problem between this game and something in hardware?
