Fast user Switching does not work on my PC.
When I try to change users and click on a another user on the welcome screen
it appears to start logging on then takes me back to the welcome screen.
I used to work untill recently.
Any ideas?
 
Make sure Fast User Switching is turned on.
Start | Settings | Control Panel | User Accounts |
Click Change the way users log on or off |

Third-party programs, such as the Novell client and the Citrix client,
replace the Microsoft Graphical Identification and Authentication file
(Msgina.dll).

Read these, you may have added a new program recently.
