-- Hi...I can't find help for this at the microsoft support site or anywhere
for
that matter! The computer is a Dell Latitude D600 laptop...It's running
windows media 2005...It was the victim of a very bad virus and after much
effort I decided to do a clean reinstall of XP using the recovery disc...The
reinstall went fine, but when I rebooted it wanted an administrator
password...There never was one so that was odd..it also showed an error
message that said the following:
The System cannot log you on due to the following error:
The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted.
Please try again or consult your system administrator
After some research I found a way to get into the user accounts during the
actual installation, so I ran the install again, created new user accounts,
one with administrator rights, and then assigned new passwords..All went
well, the system rebooted, I clicked on the administrator account when it
asked for that, was almost in and bam..the error above came up and I still
can't get in. So I don't think the problem is a password issue.....Searching
using that error message returns posts about the same problem after a clean
xp install on windows media, but no solutions were forthcoming...So, thank
you for reading and I'm open to any ideas anyone may have...
