| 699983 | 2008-08-24 05:58:00 | today my dad wanted to go on the computer so i logged off. when he logged on to his account an error came up saying something like "the required files to log you on cannot be found and a temporary profile will be made..." or something like that when it finally logged on all of his folders were gone and the login was completely reset. i restarted the computer but this didnt fix it, the other logins were fine though... when i later went onto my login(now) i tried to see if i could find his files, in his documents folder there was nothing but when looked in the documents and settings folder i found his files and a temp folder as well. ho do i get his login back to the way it was? this is not the first time this has happened as well because i remember a few weeks ago it had happened, i panicked and unplugged it and turned it back on it worked. i didnt do that this time though. what could be the problem? is my HDD failing? |

| 699989 | 2008-08-24 07:16:00 | Is the error Error 0x800704C8?? If it is, everything in google says this is for Vista, its a bug You're using XP right? |

| 699991 | 2008-08-26 05:52:00 | um i looked on the event viewer and found a few for this error heres the most important one i think: Event Type: Error Event Source: Userenv Event Category: None Event ID: 1511 Date: 24/08/2008 Time: 3:31:17 p.m. User: SN2656877059\Packard Bell Computer: SN2656877059 Description: Windows cannot find the local profile and is logging you on with a temporary profile. Changes you make to this profile will be lost when you log off. For more information, see Help and Support Center at go.microsoft.com also the thing it said at the start on my first post in this therad was: Windows cannot find the local profile and is logging you on with a temporary profile. Changes you make to this profile will be lost when you log off. |
