I set up user accounts on my PC with myself as administrator.Last week, I went to log on and a window popped up stating something to the effect that my user profile could not be located.When I logged on, my desktop was gone, replaced by the standard icons for the PC.I am not recognized as the administrator.I also had the display command intentionally disabled, and now cannot open user accounts to becuase of that.1 person needs an answerI do too

Your user account has become corrupted. Log into the built-in Administrator account and create a new user account for yourself. Log into the new account once to create the profile's files/folders. Then copy the data from the old user account to the new one. To get into the built-in Administrator account in XP Home, boot the computer into Safe Mode. Do this by repeatedly tapping the F8 key as the computer is starting up. This will get you to the right menu. Navigate using your Up arrow key; the mouse will not work here. Once in Safe Mode, you will see the normally hidden Administrator account. The default password is a blank. In XP Pro, you do not need to go into Safe Mode. At the Welcome Screen, do Ctrl-Alt-Del twice to get the classic Windows logon box. Type in "Administrator" and whatever password you assigned when you set up Windows.MS-MVP - Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
