Refusing To Log On / Profile Corrupted / System Slowed Down?
May 3, 2008
XP refusing to log me on to my system as my Profile was corrupt or missing. For a while I could log off the temp Profile and get my Profile loaded but not at all now. I tried creating a new user Profile and copying over my existing Profile but Windows failed to do that. Now running a new Profile and have manually copied over various bits and settings etc. That was the first signs of problems.
Now The PC takes ages to boot, several minutes - sits on the WinXP splash screen (with animated blue loading bar) for a long time, that clears to a blank screen where it sits for ages, Desktop finally loads but System Tray apps then take ages to load as well.The system generally runs slow once XP is fully loaded
Over the last few days, i am facing problem of user profile corrupt message coming by using Windows XP on my Laptop. It's seem that local user profile got corrupted as showing messaging in beginning. "Windows cannot load the locally stored profile. Possible causes of this error include insufficient security rights or a corrupt local profile. If this problem persists, contact your network administrator. DETAIL - An I/O operation initiated by the registry failed unrecoverably. The registry could not read in, or write out, or flush, one of the files that contain the system's image of the registry."
I don't know much about computers but right now my computer is really screwing me over, This morning when I had loged on it seemed to be fine, But later this afternoon this happend when I was trying to log on to my account. This message came up :"Windows cannot load the locally stored profile. Possible causes of this error include insufficient security rights or a corrupt local profile. If this problem persists, contact your network administrator. DETAIL - An I/O operation initiated by the registry failed unrecoverably. The registry could not read in, or write out, or flush, one of the files that contain the system's image of the registry." I have then setup up so new accounts but they do not work,A new message appears saying it will now log me onto a Temporay Account.
I was working on a project the other day... all day... (in XP) and that night when I had gotten to a satisfactory stopping point, I saved and closed. I then restarted into Win7 to do the facebook/email/news thing and then went and hung out with my roommates for a bit. Later, when I wanted to show off the progress on my project - a carefully crafted MIDI drum track in Cakewalk SONAR - I came back and restarted my computer into XP.
Well, I'm greeted at the log-on screen with an error along the lines of "windows cannot load your user profile..." and then spit into this brand new account that has assumed my name but has none of my settings. I immediately went for my project (which was in the My Documents folder, with everything else) but it was gone.
At my job we have about 500 networked users on WinXP 32 bit. Each user has an individual log in - there are no roaming profiles. We're in the process of creating a new image andI'm having a disagreement with a new tech here. He says we should get rid of the Default User Profile and only use the All Users Profile. Every time I've created an image I've set up the image the way I want and then copied that over to the default profile - so that when new users log in - they see exactly what i've set up in terms of the standard desktop shortcuts we use. This new tech thinks the default user's profile redundant and not really needed. I'm having a hard time finding information the default users profile and if it's needed or not.
i shut down my Pc normally at my work and when i started today morning and put my user name and login , a windows apears with the following message. WINDOWS CANNOT LOAD THE USER'S PROFILE BUT HAS LOGGED ON WITH THE DEFAULT PROFILE FOR THE SYSTEM DETAIL- THE SYSTEN CANNOT FINE THE PATH SPECIFIED how can i get my profile back to work normally as before.
While installing SP2 It has the install screen HALF WAY through progress with msmsgs.inf on the 'installing now' section Then it closes and approx 10 seconds later this pops up Ive re-formatted and it still occures - I dont want to buy a new copy of windows, Since Im 70% sure thats not the problem, Since ive had SP2 On this version before using the same install disc.
My system now takes about half an hour to boot up. I gets to the desk top pritty quick but I cant use anything for about 30 mins.So far I have deleted some old programs ran disk clean up on both drives. There is not much on my computre and and my C drive is less then half full. I ran a full virus scan and it was all clear. I only have one anti virus and no firewall.
I have always had Norton but accidentally deleted a file so that it no longer worked. I downloaded EZ Armor which is the freebie from Road Runner (My new ISP). I haven't been able to move around very much since that time.
My PC shuts down all by itself from time to time and I can no longer connect to OE to get my email. The computer seems so slow all of a sudden. I primarily use Firefox 1.5. On occasion I use IE. All of this started after I deleted the remainder of the
I'm using XP service pack 2 on a Fujitsu-Seimens laptop. The system has slowed down so much now that it can take 5 minutes to refresh a webpage. It has only recently happened. I use a good anti-virus but cannot now complete a scan in sensible time. The CPU seems to be working 100% all the time. I'm pretty sure the problem is down to something I've downloaded recently. I've used system restore but no luck there.
my computer is running at 100% CPU almost all the time, erratically. I am SO frustrated-- this has happened to me twice before, and I could not figure it out, so I just reinstalled fresh copies of Windows each time.It runs fine for a while, then all of a sudden this same problem comes back. I am sick of having to reinstall all of my programs, and was hoping that maybe someone else was having a similar problem so I wouldn't have to reinstall everything again.
Im not sure whats going on my computer is just going slow. It started about a week ago, I installed a second hardrive about 3 weeks ago but everything was ok.Its slow to open programs clicking on anything all that.I ran spybot and Adadware, panda online scan and trend micro and no viruses some spyware I removed. It looks like Explorer.exe and java are taking up the most of it but even with the java is off and Im disconnected from the internet its still very slow.I have a Dell Dimension 2400 2.4ghz processor 512 megs ram, geforce fx 5200 and windows xp. a forty gigabyte hardrive and 8 gigabyte hardrive I added. I used cables from a older computer to hook up the two harddrives dont know if that matters or not. Ive tried defragging both drives too It didnt help.
I did so buying a dell and also bought a docking station for the SATA harddrive so I could copy stuff on tothe new PC. My new machine runs vista (your rules forbid me to tell you what I think of Vista by now). Vista insisted on taking ownership of the files on the disk before it would let me touch them let alone copy them. I let it do its stuff and it changed ownership to the administrator on vista(incidentally the same username and password as teh admin on the old machine).So far so good but then a bit of good luck struck. A friend of a friend fixed the old laptop for me - it had been a blown relay and a faulty power supply. He fixed the relay and I ordered a new power supply. Beers exchanged hands
I started having problems with Internet Explorer, it would crash very frequently and I would have to clear temp files and cookies for it to work properly. I posted a HJT log and was advised to update to SP2 (whoops, only had broadband 3 weeks so I didn't know
I also started using Firefox and it worked fine where IE crashed out. I think i'll stick with it.
Now I have problems with my connection, IE and Firefox often time out and take 20seconds or so to load a new page. My dads laptop on the same wireless connection works fine (I have PC with wireless card on BT 2meg co
A couple of weeks ago I was searching the net and everything froze. Trying to shut down properly, NOTHING would work, including the power button. I removed and reconnected the battery to shut down and restart.Well, since then my computer has been unbearably slow. Every task from start-up (20 minutes, if at all) to loading Firefox (10 minutes) in awful. There are times where nothing even loads, all I see is my background and a cursor, nothing more.On the lucky chance that I do get everything up and running, it is slow to the point where even the clock is behind other clocks around me (cable box, other laptop) by 8-20 or so minutes.
A friend of mine at work has problems sharing external usb hard drives connected to his laptop. He is running XP pro, and when he attempts to share a drive connected through usb, giving everyone full control it lets no one in. Not even he can, and he is the creator/owner of the share. I'm pretty sure its not a permissions issue, since it gives the same error when I try to browse it and I have domain admin rights. This has happened with three separate drives, all of which can be shared when connected to any other pc than his. ( I have tried all three on four separate computers, making the share the exact same way with full access.The computer can see the share just fine, it just denies permission to access it either from the computer that created the share, or from any other computer on the network.
I have noticed that my system has slowed down considerably since I got it. I know when you install programs it slow down.But mine is has really really slowed down. I was wondering if I reinstalled Windows Xp would it maybe be a bit faster? what can I do to make it a bit faster?
i have a problem with my windows system.. it has been working highly slowly lately and i cant even run more than two programs on it .. i have windows Xp and i have norton systemworks.. i often use the antivirus.. i was talking with some friends and the fact that i might have a trojan came up. i would like to RESTART everything and boot up the original windows Xp. i have a startup flopy disk and i am not sure if this is needed to format the C drive..
i have had problems with my computer for a while. i have windows xp. recently whenever i make any changes to the computer like desktop arrangement and shutdown none of the changes are saved. i tried to rrestore to a previous time when there were no problems but when it booted back up just before it come to the windows screen it says "windows cannot load the locally stored profile. possible causes of this error include insufficient security rights or a corrupt local profile." then "windows cannot find the local profile and is logging you on with a temporary profile."
All the systems on my network about 30 systems all running windows xp pro with service pack two keep deleting user profiles the sytems all connect to a win2k domain controller. users keep having problems opening their files or changing system settings even though they were originally configured as administrators on their systems wondering what the problem could be.
is it safe to delete my older profile named Administrator from System Properties Advanced tab>under User Profiles>Settings? as i already have a new administrator account. it all happened when my Pc crashed & i had to create a new administrator account.also i booted it twice so it created two additional folders-Administrator.username & Administrator . Also it gives me an option to delete the old Administrator from above path.
The system can be restored by using the Startup CD and pressing R for recover, but I do not have any cd. The only one I have it the recover cd, but it is my understanding that if I use the recovery cd that I will erase everything from my computer and I can not do this.I tried to read the other threads about the same problem, but to be honest I do not understand them and I just do not have the startup cd - maybe it is the same as the recovery cd?
When I start the laptop, the first black screen loads, and then directly skips to an error message saying "Windows cannot start because the Windows/system32/ config/system file is either corrupt or missing." Then it prompts you to try to load Windows using the installation CD.which I do not have! Whoever's reading this, PLEASE please help me, the laptop's like, my life, and I haven't had the common sense to back up anything
I have a corrupt user profile. A program would not work (Avery DesignPro 3.5) and their support told me to create a new user profile.I did, and the program works under the new profile. The problem is that nothing that I use all the time is under the new profile. How can I uncorrupt my regular user profile, or do I need to switch back and forth when I want to use that program?
I had a user account, However, for some reason, I have done something wrong and reboot the machine, that user account had gone, only Administrator is left. Then I created an account with the same name: John Smith. I noted under the Documents and Settings, there are 2 John Smith, they are: 1)John Smith and 2)John Smith.JS I think the first one is the original one because the date modified was a couple of months ago. The second one is the one that I just created.Can I recover my original one ?
I am running Win XP Mediaa Center Edition 2005 and have just received a message on the second boot up page saying: Windows cannot load because the following file is missing or corrupt: WINDOWSSYSTEM32CONFIGSYSTEM You may attempt to recover or repair this file using the original Windows CD
I'm on my friends computer right now due to the fact that mine has crashed since this morning. I come home from school to find that I am out fo windows and theres a message on my screen stating that my system32 file is corrupted. I have a cd that came with my computer and I can get into command prompt dos through it. Is there a way to fix this to just to redo the system32 file through dos instead of having me have to lose all of my work and reinstall windows.
I changed some start up settings, and when the pc restarted everything was wrong. Media players didnt work; printer driver just disappeared; Outlook Express was messed up; AIM couldnt log on; and the desktop toolbar changed color. Will some1 plz help me, can I still fix this somehow or I just have to reinstall the OS? ps:System restore was all erased 2
