I am having strange problems in Windows XP with the
accounts. I made 4 accounts, 1 admin account and the
other ones limited.
My pc is a Compaq Presario 6079, 256mb memory 2.0Ghz
processor. It worked without problems for the last 2 yrs.
After some hardware problems i reinstalled Windows XP Pro
and after that the performance of the limited accounts is
very slow. If you change the limited account in admin
account no problems, I deleted some accounts and made new
ones but only if you make them admin the performance is
good. As limited accounts you can try to start ie6 but
starts up very slow
All latest drivers and servicepacks are up to date.
Can someone tell me what this is?
