Re: Log in Error Message

Created new user account and managed to log into it without any error
messages, yay! So far so good?

Here are the next steps:
1. Log on as usual.
2. Create a new user account.
3. Log off your normal account.
4. Log on under the new account.

Does this solve the problem with the error messages? If yes
then the next steps will involve retrieving your files.

I looked into doing a System Restore but it would only let me go back to
the
date (8th July!) when the problem occured! I am not very technical with
all
this so have no idea really what I am doing! Thanks for the advice so far
and
I will definitley be backing up my files, once I can find them again!

When I switch on my PC and get to the welcome page, instead of getting
my
user account name I get 2 error messages. One of which is the
following:

DETAIL - An I/O operation initiated by the registry failed
unrecoverably.
The registry could not read in, or write out, or flush, one of the
files
that
contain the system's image of the registry.

Then I get logged into a temporary desk top which loses all data each
time
I
log off, and I have lost all my photos, document and music, etc but my
internet connection works fine, luckily! Any help would be much
appreciated
please!!

I do not think that you have lost any files - they are probably
in a different place than where you are looking. As a first step
you should run System Restore in order to return the machine
to a point a few days before the problems started.

You should also consider adopting sound computing habits.
If you have important files on your machine then you must
back them up regularly, e.g. weekly, to an independent medium.
If you don't then you will lose them sooner or later. A 2.5" hard
disk in an external USB case is an excellent and low-cost
backup medium.
