Answer 1

It looks like there is some kind of problem with your profile. Some of your profile settings are stored in the registry, but most of them are stored in a directory under c:\document and settings\ Many programs store your personal settings in your profile. My documents are also stored in your profile. There can be many profiles on a single computer, and they are loaded when you login to the computer.

The problem is that you don't know why your profile can't be loaded. There would be any number of things wrong. One sure fire way to fix the problem is to do the following.

1. Login to the computer as someone else that has administrative privledges.
2. Backup anything you need to keep by browsing to c:\documents and settings\\... and coping that data to another safe place on your hard drive.
3. Right click on my computer, click properties, under the advanced tab you'll find User Profile settings. This might be in a slighly different spot depending on what version of OS you are running. You'll need to delete your profile.
4. When you loggin again, it will create a brand new profile for you.
5. Copy the stuff you backed up into your profile directory again.

Your Profile Cannot Be Loaded

Answer 3

are u using domain network or something?
cause i have this kind of experienced too. im in domain network. and my account is cannot loaded. i believe your profile not correctly in right path. by all mean, u can diasble your account and then create new account. but first make sure your profile is in right path (maybe accidently change) and second u can try in registry. (forget in where u can fix this)
