Re: Can't logon from workstation as Administrator



Sounds like the Administrator Profile is Corrupt?
(But on all PC's?)
Sounds like there's something in the startup of the Admin that's locking
it..

Now when this happens on a Client login I saw there were something in the
Startup
(msconfig) that was messing things up.
Example in the case I found last week that did this same error on a XP Pro
it was two Virus programs trying to startup.
I removed one and it worked.

RE Reading everything you said I was wondering about the ISA Client Didn't
update?
I wonder if that's messing things up?

Anyone?
