Hi,

I have setup windows xp embedded on one of my Via (EPIA LN) board.

The setup (FBA) runs perfectly fine and windows does auto logon. But all the
changes I make in the logon sessions does not get saved. Effectively user
profile is not getting saved. When ever I restart windows, all the changes
(e.g. screen settings, icons added to desktop etc.) are gone and I have to do
the changes again.

Please need urgent help in resolving this. The same XPe image was working
fine earlier. Only difference is that earlier I was using DOM now I am using
an SATA (IDE) hard disk.

Hi,

This is really a strange issue.

We just noticed that what ever new files are created on the hard disk they
get deleted as soon as the system is rebooted.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Problem Resolved.

Actually the image I was using was earlier built for the flash disk (DOM)
and EWF was enabled.

This means that any writes to my C: were written actually to overlay RAM
disk and they are not comitted to the hard disk.

I have now disabled the EWF for the C: and things have started working fine.

Thanks
