Could someone help me out?

I have a customer who has 5 users, 4 users logon with no
issues. However one user is unable to logon to one PC
the company purchased a new PC now when the user logs on
they get a message for 30 seconds saying the roaming
profile could not be loaded check permissions the admin
group should be the folder owner. The system then logs
the user on using a temp profile. But on any other PC
the user can logon? It's wierd and i don't know.
Network drives are also mapped. Has anyone ever had
this. The share has all the correct permissions admin is
the owner and admins and everyone has full control?

Hi

This may be of some help.

The information in this article applies to:
Microsoft Windows XP Professional
Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition

SYMPTOMS
When you log on to your network from a Microsoft Windows XP-based computer,
you receive an error message that is similar to the following:
The roaming profile cannot be found.

When you view the application log, you see an event that is similar to the
following:
Event Type: Error
Event Source: Userenv
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1521
Date: Date
Time: Time
User: User
Computer: Computer_Name
Description: Windows cannot locate the server copy of your roaming profile
and is attempting to log you on with your local profile. Changes to the
profile will not be copied to the server when you logoff. Possible causes
of this error include network problems or insufficient security rights. If
this problem persists, contact your network administrator.

DETAIL - Windows cannot find the network path. Verify that the network path
is correct and the destination computer is not busy or turned off. If
Windows still cannot find the network path, contact your network
administrator.

CAUSE

your network, and you have a roaming user profile.

The problem is on a windows 2000 professional system.

The company has 5 units the user is able to logon to all
other systems just not her own PC. The problem was
thought to be a disk problem on her PC so they got a new
and the problem still exists

Hope you can help
