Windows XP Pro, Multiuser account SHutdown problem.

G

Guest

I have a P4 2.4 WinXP 512 Mb RAM and 40GB HDD PC , with two user accounts, 1
is administrator and other is restricted user.
Whenever the user (other then Administrator) logs in on the PC and shuts it
down, the PC on nxt startup/boootup comes up with SCANDISK (Checkdisc) screen
stating The PC was not shut down properly your Disk needs to be checked up
for Consistency.."
But if the Administrator logs in and shuts down it doesn't pose any problem.

One more thing to clarify..At one time only one user uses the PC.
Can anyone tell me the solution for this problem.?

Thanks in anticipation

It may be because you have something loading up at startup that won't
shutdown properly under the limited user account.
Go to admin account an go to run and type msconfig. Under startup see what
is loading that may cause the issue. You can diable the offending prog from
auto starting from there. This may not be the cause of you issue but check
it anyway.
