Problem:

Windows 2000 Pro (being set into a dual boot with Windows XP) will not
fully login after placing the image created with Norton Ghost from
another machine.

It will accept the user name and password then the login screen goes
away taking the screen to a blank desktop. After about two minutes a
screen comes up that says "saving your settings" then we are returned
to the user name and password screen.

Windows XP Pro comes up with no trouble. Windows XP was a
pre-installed image from Dell.

Windows 2000 Pro has been running on another machine for five plus
years. We resized the partitions with Partition Magic to mimic the
old Windows 2000 partition structure.

This scenario happens similarly on two different machines with
different drive partitioning.

Please advise!
