Re: Logon / Logoff loop

Okej, du kan göra så här:
1. Start the problem PC (PC1) but don't log on.
1. Get onto a networked PC, PC2.
2. Run this command: psexec \\PC1 cmd.
3. Type this command: set system.
4. Run regedit.exe on PC2.
5. Open the registry of PC1.
6. Navigate to HKLM\System\MountedDevices of PC1.
7. Rename \DosDevices\Y: to \DOSDevices\Z:
where Y: is the system drive letter from Step 3
and Z: is the correct system drive letter (usually C:).
8. Reboot PC1.
You can get psexec.exe from www.sysinternals.com.

Hi

hmm.. I wonder how the system drive has changed..
I'm networked, and can also switch disks if needed, but I preferes
network.
WinXp is installed and running on same C: drive, no boot managers but a D:
drive is a W98 that I somtimes switch to by bios change.

Hi

I'm stucked with the login logout loop on my XP pro sp2 swedish

Bakground is that I get a windows error (send to ms..) message from a
application during application execute. I was installed this
application
(a
serious) earlier during this session. Then I could not start the
application
again after this message so I restared and now I have the logon
logoff
loop
for all local and domain acounts.
I can logon in correctly for all these acounts in safe mode.

I have done a registry restore both manually and thrue the system
restore.
I have replaced userinit (blazefind), explorer and msgina.dll from
another
pc.
I have deleted all files as I can se from the installing application
and
registry.
I have disabled all autostarts in msconfig.
I have run a spyware check.


When I logon, a fast change of background color appear for the
profile
before message "saving settings appear and log me out back to logon
screen.

I usually help people with this kind of problem as, but now its seems
to
be
my turn.
Any suggestions, what have I missed ?
Is someone know the start procedure scheme looks like after logon,
with
files is involved?


Thanks,
Christer



This is a well-known problem that is caused by your system drive
letter having changed. The cure depends on your setup: It's easy
if the machine is networked, much less easy if you have another
not-networked Win2000/XP nearby and harder again if it is a
stand-alone machine. What is your setup?
