When I create a new account and try to log on as that new account I get a
little pop-up "Windows cannot load that profile as it cannot be found,
instead it has loaded you as a default user" and it is basically a blank
user account with nothing in the My Documents ie. My Pictures, My Music, no
shared folder on C: etc... and nothing in Documents and settings, ie.
Application data, Local Settings, etc...

name give it admin permission, create:
 
Is the computer on a network?

That being the case you could be looking at editing the registry to
accomplish the result from the MSKB article. That's something that I don't
consider myself qualified to tackle. Perhaps post again and ask if it's
possible to accomplish the result in the MSKB article with XP Home.
