Re: Cannot open user accounts page

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



This machine belongs to a customer of mine. It was built as a white box by a
technician. Apparently he used a crippled version of Windows or a special
version from Microsoft under a special licensing program. Anyway it was
crippled and lacking updates capability. This is a poor practice on the part
of this technician.

Anyway, the customer decided to buy a new copy of Windows XP Home. My
problem now is that Home will not update over Professional. I guess I will
have to reinstall all of the applications if I can find the CDs.
