I cannot create a new user account or access the user account in win xp pro
sp2. I can get thru the procedure and it appears to create the account but
when I go to the account it only displays a light blue blank screen. Any help
would be appreciated
 
Explain what you mean by 'when I go to the account'. Do you mean when you
reboot the system, all that appears is the blue screen ... you do not get
prompted for a Username?

If so, if you have only one user on the system AND with no password, you
will not be prompted. Windows XP will just come up in that account.
 
I can log on as adminstrator with no problem. I am trying to create a limited
account for teenage son and daughter to use this computer so they will not
goober it up so badly. I can create a new user account with password, picture
etc. When we try to access this (these) accounts we go no action, just a pale
blue screen. I can hit control/alt/delete and log off the "corrupted (my
desciption)" account, get back to the adminstrator account which is password
protected and delete the "corrupted" account and everything works fine. Any
more help would be appreciated.
