Running XP Pro - SP1. When I set up a Limited User Account, and then log in
using that account, I just get a blank screen .... no start button, no ICONs,
no nothing. If I change the account to Administrator, it works?? Why can't I
set up a Limited account that can be used?

Thanks

This behavior can occur if the Windows settings for a particular user
account are corrupted.

Try this.

[[To use the VBS Files: Download .vbs file and save it to your hard drive
(you may want to right click and use Save Target As). Double click the vbs
file. You will be prompted when the script is done. ]]
