I just installed a program that requires dot NET Framework to be installed.
Now when I boot up I have to press enter at the log on screen(i don't have a password to start windows).
What can I do so I don't have to press enter everytime I reboot my computer?
My computer starts up normally.It always just autologs on since I'm the only one using my windows xp computer. However, before anything can be displayed it immediatley logs off to the logon screen. I click my username and start the login process (i have no password and before even switching to my wallpaper or anything it says stuff like logging out and saving your settings.
I tried booting in safe mode too and the same infinite logon loop occured to, even with the default administrator account. The last thing I remember doing before this happened is I was playing City of Heroes when it crashed forcing me to restart my computer. This happens occasionally in certain programs but I've never had anything like this happen before. I tried unplugging my keyboard, mouse, usb devices, ethernet cable, no luck.

I've seen another post somewhere and someone else had this problem, but I haven't found a solution. We're using WXP Pro, SP2. After doing a repair install (the other person just had it after using Windows Update), at logon, after entering the correct, AND VALID, password either for a user Or the Administrator, Windows Logon displays the following Logon Message in a box: "!The system cannot log you on due to the following error: "The program issued a command but the command length is incorrect. "Please try again or consult your administrator."
No matter how many times logon is attempted, or with what account, the message continues to be issued. Thus, NO ONE can logon to the GUI. The Recovery Console can be used to logon as Administrator, but no password is requested even though there is one in place. I've searched the MSKB but didn't find any reference. Implementing "Last known good configuration" does not fix the problem.
When i boot up the system hangs at the blue 'Windows xp' screen, the 'Windows is starting' is missing and it goes no further, the logon screen does not appear so i can't get in. I have recovery console on and i can get into the drive by booting in from another drive/operating system
View 1 Replies View RelatedI cannot logon to xp. I don't have the icon logon so I can read to you exactly what it does
Loading your personal settings (this one goes fast but I think its playing logon sound)
Restoring network connections (during that I see my desktop background) something skips quickly through here, i think its executing WGAlogon.dll or something Saving your settings (background disappears)
and now I'm back in the logon box
I really don't have much information other than I can't login
Is there any way to make a user by only editing files?
I have system restore points but I cant get to them because I can login to the user even in safe mode, any way to get to those?
I only have 1 user so Ignore my messup right there, not creating a backup user.
yesterday i dl logonloader to change my logon screen. i went to deviantart to dl a new picture. it was a zip file and i used winrar to extract it. i logged off my computer and a black screen with a box popped up. it asked where to extract the file to and it automatically gave c:/windows/system32 as the location. i hit install and now i get an error message saying incorrect path. i cannot get back into my computer. i've tried extracting to other locations. windows support had me install another windows on my computer..so now i have 2 operating systems. but i still cannot access the other system to retrieve any files. is there anything i can do short of allowing everything to be erased and have the computer restored?

But I need help because my laptop isn't working. The problem is that when I get to the login screen there is no user account to click on and instead shows me just a blank spot where the button should be. I have tried using control-alt-del and it pops up as a different login screen, but when I try to login it says "cannot log in interactively".
I am facing difficulties to logon to my laptop. It runs on Windows XP SP2 and it has been working fine for the last 9 months. I have installed a software called "cnbtech" which is used to installed drivers for a camera.I restarted my laptop and the laptop stops in the Logon page. The weird part is that the user icon is not displayed on the screen.So the pressed "ctrl+alt+del" to open a page which shows my name as the user and it request for a password, but i do not have any idea about the password as i did not set any password before. I tried to enter the administrator mode but it request for a password as well, and i even tried to run on safe mode but the password is still being asked.There are so many important documents saved in it so i cannot afford to reformat my laptop. So i have removed my hardisk and connected it as an external hardisk to another laptop. Here i can view all the softwares and docoments stored in my hard disk.My opinion is that the "dll files" which are assigned to the Windows Logon might have been corrupted. I want to replace the dll files with a new one from another laptop. Now my problem is i don't know which dll files are assigned to the windows Logon.
View 2 Replies View RelatedTurned on the computer this afternoon, clicked my identity to log on to windows, entered my password and the logon process proceeded. However, at this point a strange little Windows-like box pops up withe a yellow triangle, a "yes" button and a "no" button. There is no other text in the box. Not being sure what the heck it was, I clicked NO and the computer booted up as normal. This box has appeared on each subsequent reboot. I have run AdAware, but Spybot S&D fails to respond each time I try to launch it (related?).
View 13 Replies View RelatedI recently attempted to install a program that installed Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1. The installation of the original program didn't complete so I uninstalled .Net. Now, when I turn on my computer the log on screen doesn't appear - it just goes directly to the desktop. This isn't a problem because I only have one user account, but I just wanted to see if my ininstalling .net had something to do with this, or if not, what else could have caused this to happen spontaneously? (I don't like it when my computer starts doing things I didn't tell it to do
View 2 Replies View RelatedThis may be a coincidence but I installed a new anti-virus program on my laptop and and rebooted. When it restarted, I was presented with a user login screen and the only available account was "Guest". I have never previously had more than one user account and it always booted straight into XP using my default administrators account called "Peter".
I don't know how to recover the situation as when I login as Guest now I have no admin rights. I can see the "Peter" folder still exists under Documents & Settings and I really don't want to re-install XP Home if at all possible.
when i trying to access shared folder on the other PC on my LAN, the logon page only allow me to logon with guess account, the user field is disable and you cannot access with other user name, what you can do is key in the password.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe problem started when I read a magazine article about removing the "Logon Box", when the system boots up. It said you should go to the "Run Command" and type in "Control userpasswords2"

My laptop Pentium III windows XP home originally had win98. I did a fresh install of Win XP home with no logon. I use a bios level password so no further password is desired. I had someone enter some data into a database for me, and while they were using the computer they decided to create a guest account. Now I am stuck with a logon prompt. I have tried to eliminate the guest account but can only disable it. The logon prompt is annoying, how can I eliminate it?

View 3 Replies View RelatedYou may experience extremely long delays (up to 5 minutes) when logging into domains using Windows XP Pro. This is caused by the asyncronous loading of networking during the boot up process. This speeds up the login process in a stand-alone workstation by allowing the user to log in with cached logon credentials before the network is fully ready.To disable this "feature" and restore your domain logons to their normal speed, open the MMC and add the group policy snap-in. Under Computer Configuration-->Administrative Templates-->System-->Logon, change "Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon" to ENABLED.

Having looked at a few previous threads on your forums, you seem to be pretty intelligent so I guess this is the best place to post my problem, Recently I purchased one of those quadcore machines (Q6600) with a blank HD, so installed XP Pro + SP2. There was errors when installing SP2 (and SP1, when I tried that), where by it gets so far, then just freezes. Having left it for hours to try and resume, it didn't, and I was forced to end the task. When I rebooted the machine I was prompted to uninstall SP2 as it wasn't installed correctly? This wasn't an option for me, as I NEEDED to install msn IM lol anyhow.When I boot my machine up, just before the logon screen loads where it says something along the lines of "Windows is starting up...", it just stays on that for ages (several minutes!) before continuing to load the logon screen. Once the logon screen appears, everything else is fine.

Specifically, When on the Logon Screen there is information pertaining to the Users Unread Email Information. I have changed to a new email address (because of SPAM).

I run XP Home Ed SP2 on my home pc. Myself and my wife have user accounts.
When i login to my account it takes for ever for the desktop to appear and all the automatic programs etc to start up (i use sophos antivirus & EZ Firewall). I cant even get taskmanager to appear until everything has loaded. I have to go for a smoke while waiting for it to finish.
My wifes login however is instantaneous - everything appears quickly and ready to go in no time.
I dont understand this - i assumed the same programs were running cos they are installed on the psame pc.
Is there a program i can run to show me what is loading from the log on screen so i can compare between the two user accounts?
or can anyone suggest something to quicken mine up?
