I have XP Pro. I did a reboot and all the settings in my
profile were gone. I looked in the docs and settings and a
new profile was created with my computer name as an
extension. I.e. it was Scott buck and then it created
scott buck.p4server. The log in screen was still the same.
I deleted the new profile and rebooted and it recreated
it. I transferred everything over from the old to this new
one and everything is still corrupted. My sound scheme is
gone, all settings are back to original and when I change
them and reboot, they revert back to XP's default
settings. Just weird things like that. I tried all my
system restore points and they will not work at all. Any
ideas or suggestions? They only thing that I can see that
was changed was that my G/F installed yahoo companion
while I was gone this weekend!!
 
Hi Scott,

Suggestions:

Where did my sounds go?

Save Settings on Exit (Line 54)

To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it
and answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by
right clicking on the file and selecting Edit.

Note: Yahoo Companion is known to create IE issues for starters.
