Try to log on as different users and also in safe mode and does excatly the same each time which is:

Ctrl+Alt+Del screen ..... Log on using username and password....says it's loading personal settings......then of all a sudden it goes to saving settings and retunrs back to the ctrl+Alt+Del screen.

Has this happened to anyone else and if so how do u get round it as it's an important machine!

Thanks in Advance
 
Linzy,

I had the same exact problem recently for a WindowsXP Home computer. I tried to do the Repair as Mattwray suggested. After trying many things the only way to resolve this was to reinstall the OS. What happened in my case was a Malware worm infected the workstation. Right after I cleaned the system after the reboot I could not login and got the same exact messages you were getting, "Loading Personal Settings" and then "Logging off".


Wish I had better news for you.

Zoey
