I might be beating a dead horse here but having problems with roaming profiles from an xp machine to win 7 machine. we have win 2003 sbs with 5 xp clients and we are adding a new win 7 client. I got the win 7 machine added to the domian with no problems. Now when a user logs on to the 7 machine thier xp profile does not follow them. Or should I say any thing the user does is not saved to thier xp profile. I read sooo much on this issue that i am sooo confused and ready to take the win 7 machine out. Can anybody give me or show where I can do this easy.

You can't use an XP roaming profile on a W7 machine. It will cause too many problems. You should have your W7 machines in a separate OU and set the group policy to go to a different roaming profile location. -------- Regards, Hank Arnold Microsoft MVP Windows Server - Directory Services http://it.toolbox.com/blogs/personal-pc-assistant/ On 10/7/2010 6:12 PM, onedge wrote: I might be beating a dead horse here but having problems with roaming profiles from an xp machine to win 7 machine. we have win 2003 sbs with 5 xp clients and we are adding a new win 7 client.
