User unable to log into machine, automatically logs out of machine during login process

I have someone who is trying to log into his machine. He puts in his
username/password and it acts like it is accepting the password and
proceeds to start logging him in. After a few second while it is
loading the settings, it then changes to saving your settings and logs
him out. I went in with my account and was able to log into the
machine just fine without any issues. I am curious if anyone else has
come across this kind of issue where only one person was having the
issue at a specific machine with it logging them out during the login
process.

Is it just a single machine or are you logging onto a network on the
same machine?

This is a networked machine on a domain. It is being logged onto the
network. Everyone else is able to log into it without any issues.
The user has a roaming profile that is mapped to another server. I
have already went and reset the roaming profile to a default profile
without any change in the issue. I have seen some fixes where people
make some regedit changes to the machine but haven't attempted those
just because it is only affecting one individual.

Then logging in is controlled by the domain server, not the client
machine. You need to speak to the network administrator to sort it out.
Login privileges may have been removed for the individual, for any
number of reasons.

Sounds like it could be a corrupt profile on that PC, you may have to log in
as admin move his files, delete the profile then recreate the profile by
logging back in, and apply new settings etc and move the files back.

Thanks everyone who offered help on this. We did remove his local
profile yesterday and now today he is able to login without any issues.
