I'm still with WinXP, but been to help friend with adding extra RAM to his
Vista Basic 512mb Ram.
I took out the 512 mb and replaced it with 2 x 1gb RAM bought from Crucial
UK for his PC.
There has only ever been 1 account, and at bootup the password for this
account was asked for.
We entered the KNOWN password (it's never been changed from new, approx 11
months) and we got ;-
"User profile service failed the logon, user profile cannot be loaded",
which slowed us down a bit :-)
We took an option to "reset password - put disc in drive with password on"
(or something similar), but he has never created such a disc.
To repeat - the password entered 'was' correct.

I took the 2 x 1gb out and replaced the 1 x 512mb to no avail, we still got
the same error report.
I'm not familiar with Vista or creating accounts with logon passwords.
Friend is even less knowledgeable, and is some 60 miles away from me.
I wouldn't have thought that by adding 2 x 1gb RAM should have any effect on
loging on (but I'm not an expert)
So, we have a situation where we cannot start Vista.

I would appreciate any advice to help us overcome this problem.

Thank you
