Posted 21 December 2010 - 11:04 PM First off I'd like to thank you very much for even opening this thread! I greatly appreciate the help! The following error message only occurs after someone has been logged onto the computer on their account for an extended period of time (I think it's about 5 or 6 hours and over, but I have no way of being sure). A few months ago I got a pretty bad virus infection, I cleaned it all up and the system ran, but had some errors going on with windows. I then bought an external hard drive. So I re-formatted and re-installed windows XP. Then I found this error message after logging off of my user, and then having my brother try to log onto his user profile. There are 5 user profiles on this computer, and only one of them has administrative rights at the moment.
So it only occurs when someone has been logged on for over 5 hours, and then tries to log onto another person's profile it doesn't affect only one profle, but usually affects all profiles but the one that was logged into for over 5 hours. I have tried running chkdsk, it comes up with no problems. I've tried running SFC.exe /SCANNOW but it always around
the end, after fixing a few problems with the Dell re-installation DVD, asks me to insert windows xp CD2, which I don't have, I only have 1 disc that has to do with windows XP, the other discs are drivers and software. I'm starting to form 3 'theories' Please this is the biggest annoyance I've had to date! Is there anything I can do? I've run so many virus scans that I've been driving myself insane over the past few months! Please BC community, I really need you guys! Edit: I forgot to add that the problem is fixed simply by restarting the computer! Edited by ArtistInNeed, 22 December 2010 - 12:34 AM. BC AdBot (Login to Remove)

Posted 22 December 2010 - 10:35 AM This problem is more serious than you think...since eventually user access could be denied. Damaged profiles occur routinely...they beoome showstoppers only because users ignore the warnings that are provided...by permitting access via temporary profiles. Users need to create a new profile...and then transfer settings, etc. from the damaged to the new...in order to overcome a damaged profile. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555473 AND http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326688 .

Posted 22 December 2010 - 01:41 PM Thanks Louis! Once my father gets off of that computer for his business I'll tell him that I'll be doing this, so in a few hours I'll be doing it. I'll get back to you as soon as possible! I want you to know how grateful I am for your help Louis! #4 hamluishamluis

Posted 22 December 2010 - 03:01 PM Actually...Microsoft deserves the credit for providing documentation on this and many other Windows situation. It doesn't take much effort by me to look such up, using Google .

Posted 26 August 2014 - 12:57 PM I would assume that the profile is damaged ...create a new profile for that user...and transfer accordingly. http://support.micro...kb;en-us;811151 When using the procedure explained in 811151, none of your preferences are retained (with respect to the user registry setting), as you are excluding the NTUSER.DAT file while transferring to the new profile. Although all your files will be retained using that method, the customized settings are lost. This is by design. For the Outlook Express messages, create new mail account and transfer/import the DBX files, message rules etc. You may delete it later at a convenient time after you make sure that everything is copied to the new profile.
