Locking up at Log in Screen

I posted a similar problem here before and I changed the ram and the network
card. I still having problems. However I was able to log in on another
workstation under my login name to the domain (windows server 2003) and I
don't get the same problem. The problems is when I log in from my Windows XP
Pro Workstation and try to log in - it always locks up on me. I have to
restart the computer and then I can log in the second time. I can use the
computer a while doing different things. Some days are fine and some days I
just lock up. It did get better after I changed out the ram. I changed out
the network card just to be sure. Same problem. I don't know if my profile
is damaged on the workstation. Should I create a new profile. If I do -
should I go log into the local computer and do it there since I can log into
the domain from another workstation and everything seems fine. I just did
this so I haven't been on long. However, I had no problems logging into the
domain from the 2nd Windows XP Pro workstation using my login to the domain.

Perhaps we should all decamp to the crisps newsgroup.

Does it happen under safe mode? If not, run a back up of all data, then
clean out your startup with msconfig.

Should I just wipe out the workstation and reload Windows XP? I hoping that
not necessary!! But will!!

I will double check but I usually keep that clean.

I checked the MSconfig and there was a %systemroot%\\system32\\dumprep 0 -u
I unchecked it and so far seems good testing it for a day or so see how it
runs.
