Got a virused computer, as soon as I ran a PAV ( Mcafee Daily on NTFSDos ) to remove virii the system now gets to the welcome screen and upon clicking on a user account, it says logging in, immediately says logging off and dumps back to the welcome screen, this is with any account, including administrator, even in safe mode. I'm going to attempt to see what PAV pulled out using a linux live distro and maybe restore any missing files via recovery console,
i'm using a Dell inspiron 6400 laptop, windows XP.
-I turn my laptop on -I get to the screen where you choose a user -Whatever user i choose, it goes to log on and then immediatly logs off and goes back to the user screen.
How can i fix this? Sorry if i've missed off any info needed to help on this
So the desktop i think is infected with malware or something because every time i try to log in on any ones name (even in safe mode) it logs off. i tried looking at other forums but i couldn't understand what they were saying and TechGuy has never failed me before so any ideas?
My WinXP has gone thru a lot lately but it generally works fine.owever, after a long trip, when it was jogged around a bit, it has notbooted since. Well, it boots to the welcome screen then immediately logs off and returns to the welcome screen.It works ok in Safe mode, per se. I tried adding a new user but that just doesn't matter.
my computers busted again (and for the third time I call for help from my trusty laptop...it never seems to die whenever my desktop is in need...she's like a good neighbour...) Few days ago my ISP disconnected my internet because they found an IRC bot infecting their network. I ran my antivirus and (gasp) it found system32/virut virus, among a plethora of other files. I'm not sure how bad this virus is, or if indeed anything can be salvaged. I let the antivirus remove what it could, and rebooted my PC
I tried cleaning up some of the spyware that is on my computer the other day. Once I had, I restarted. The welcome screen appeared, it flashed my background and then went to a welcome screen with my name on it. I click on my name, the log in music plays, my background appears and then the log out music plays and I am right back at the welcome screen with my name on it. I have tried opening in every type of safe mode and all other available options when I hit F8. I called the maker of my computer and they said it is a spyware problem
I'm using XP professional SP2, after I login at the welcome screen, my screen shows my desktop wallpaper for less than a second and it auto logged off to the welcome screen again. Now I can't access my PC.
Last night I took the recommendation of Jeruvy and Arctik at this post and ran my virus checker (AVG) and spyware program (Spybot) in Safe Mode. You can read about the erratic behavior I was trying to correct in that post, but it's not directly related to the problem at hand.AVG found no problem, but Spybot found one malware program that it didn't find when not in Safe Mode: W32/GGDoor..I had Spybot correct it, which it said it did successfully. While I was in Safe Mode, I went ahead and cleaned up a bunch of temp files in each account's %temp% folder. I then rebooted.Since the reboot, I cannot properly log in to Windows -- not in regular mode nor in Safe Mode. When I log into any of the accounts (this is XP Home with multiple accounts), Windows logs me in, but before much of anything else happens, it says it is logging me back out.
My wife uses a home-built computer with windows xp home edition on it. On Friday last week it was working just fine. she left it running over the weekend, and on Sunday evening she went in to check her email. The screen had gone black, so since she couldn't get any response from it, she performed a manual reboot (at my suggestion)
I have a Home Theater PC (XP Pro with SP2) that I have been using for a few months. I recently decided to mirror the O/S drive since this machine was very valuable to me. I bought a RocketRaid 454 controller and added it to my system. I first booted up with no drives attached to the new controller (left them connected to the onboard). I did this so that XP could recognize
As soon as I connnect to the remote desktop, it immediately logs off. I have all the 'User Rights Assignments' configured, and I have RD turned on. I also have my user name in the Remote Desktop Users group.
I select my account and enter my password. Windows begins to load my personal settings but then quits and goes back to the login screen showing the user accounts. I can stop this from happening by moving the mouse while my settings are being loaded.
My computer takes me straight too the blue login screen. When i try to login in it immediately logs off. I cant boot into safe mode or restore because when i reboot it takes me directly to the login screen. Can anyone help ?
My Computer is stuck in some rebooting cycle. I have XP home edition. Every time I log in it shows my desktop with no icons, sits then logs off. I've tried safe mode with the same result. I've tried booting with my XP cd with same result. I read somewhere that it might be a virus
Our main server has a login problem - When we login it goes through all the normal processes then immediately logs off again, this happens on the server itsself and also clients connecting to it thru remote desktop.
After running a round of Symantec antivirus, I found that t the next reboot, whenever I click a user logo to login, the user wallpaper flashes briefly, then logs off again. No error message or any other indication occurs.
when i log on to my laptop it begins to load up my desktop and it only gets as far as the wallpaper then it immediately logs me off again. so i cant get into my comp to try and fix it.
I have Windows XP with SP2, and I normally have my computer set up with one user account so that it logs in straight away. I was working on it the other day and it randomly restarted, and came up with the classic user log on screen. i.e. where you must enter your username and password, not the one where it gives you a choice of user names. Also, before it loaded this screen, it flashed an unusual blue screen momentarily. I tried to log on using my username, and it started to log me on, made the traditional windows log on noise, but the dialog bow said logging out at the bottom, which is what it did moments later and I found myself back at the classic log on screen. I have tried several times to log on, I have restarted my computer, and I have started it in safe mode and it keeps doing the same thing.
I have installed XP last time i have changed some startup registry entries.when i start it. It comes to the welcome screen and show my desktop wallpaper and suddenly loggin off ...i tried both users of my computer but same issu.... last good config. login also not works. but now i cant even loggin in safe mode. i tried some forums but no tricks worked...i boot from xp cd and changed ntuser.dat to wsaupdater.dat ....but till i cant login...I think if i can able to change that registry startup value somehow then it is possible...but i dont know how can i change those value.
my Pc is starting up then when i enter my password, it logs on then logs off it's because an option then i have put without thinking in ad-aware anniversary edition, the option that tells what processes are allowed to run on the computer, is there a way to enter my PC ? i have tried running in safe mode, it's still no good
I've recently installed Sony Sound Forge 8 which, as part of the installation, creates an ASP.NET user.Since this user was created, I have to click on my User Account to log in (it's the only one thatg shows on the welcome screen, the ASP one is hidden) How do I get it back to logging me in automatically - there's no password on the account.
I have Win XP HE and have two user accounts. When one logs off ( & if its been idle for app. 15 mins.) ..the puter locks up..This has never happened in the past. (usually after app. ten minutes the WindowsXP logo appears randomly on screen which I'm assuming is normal .When moving the mouse, the Windows sign on screen appears.This happens sometimes).What I mean by locking up is that when we move the pointer to get to the sign on screen, the screen just becomes black
I go to log in on my Windows XP Home sp2 and when I log in, the background flashes then instantly logs me off. Happens in safe mode aswell as safe mode under the admin account.Ok I know alot of you have heard of this but, here is the deal, The windows xp home cd does not pick up my harddrive, I cant get signed in through normal mode aswell as safe mode, Last know config does crap, I have it hooked up to my friends pc right now and I just backed up all my important files. Nothing seems to be working, I have tried several bootable cds with registry editors in then and again none of them picked up my harddrive. So I am at a stand still! nothing seems to pick up my harddrive except plugging it into another pc.
where if i log off an account and try to log in again, there is a 1 min "Loading account settings" (i've checked it and its loading WgaLogon.dll...) and then there is an endless? (i've only been patient enough to leave it for 15 minutes) screen showing the desktop image.I can open the Task Administer and see there are some processes working (scvhost.exe mainly). I notice this not in the cpu-usage column, but on the memory-usage column, where these processes change the used memory (not in great numbers, though) Fast user switching works fine if i dont sign off of any account (I currently have only two).
Here is what is happening...When you type user name and password you are again presented with User name and Password dialogue box. You try hard to get in but to no avail. (make things worse, I made the change to the registry!...don't ask!) See Microsoft Help...http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555648/en-us This solution could work if I had the computer on a network, but I don't.Basically I need to make the following change to the registry, but alas, I cannot get into safe mode and have not been able to make any changes in "repair(?)" mode when booting of XP cd.
Whenever I log on to a non-administrator account, my computer automatically logs itself off again before I get a chance to do anything. I see the logging on message, and before the desktop even shows itself, I see the 'saving your settings' message, and I'm back at the welcome screen. I'm pretty sure it's a bad configuration in one of the administrative tools. I'm running windows xp pro on service pack 2.
I have a windows XP box that is being recovered with Backup Exec 9.1 restoring the system completly, with system state. After it restores all the files and registry the computer needs a reboot, it comes up fine to a windows log in Ctrl-Alt-Del screen, you log into the system, it accepts the password for the local machine only, no domain access, and as soon as the Log in box disappears, the "Windows is Savings your settings" screen pops, just as if you did a start -> log out command. and that is all it will do, the hardware is the same, the system was running fine before the hard disk's motor died and crashed. the backup was from the week prior.
the vpn connection was set up on my notebook by our systems administrator, and is supposed to work - but it doesn't. i've got windows xp sp2 and i connect to the internet via adsl. when i start the vpn connection i immediately get error 789 (L2TP) - without any data being transferred over the adsl connection. I've searched for a solution to this problem some time now - and there seem to be some topics about IPsec and NAT-T (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B818043) - but it didn't work for me.

I recently started up my computer and after attempting to log into Windows, it stalls for about 10 seconds, saves settings and then procceds to log off.
