A techy question for the techy people out there:

On my PC I have 3 'user accounts'.

On the WindowsXP entry screen you should be able to select one of the
user-accounts and the PC loads all the settings.

However, only one of the accounts loads the settings and programmes the
other two for some reason do absolutely nothing when I double click on the
user icons - any ideas? (is it something to do with environmental
variables??) I have completed a system-recovery recently has that damaged the
paths?

Ive tried deleting the user accounts and then re-creating them but to no
effect.

How can I get the user account icons to open???

THANKS

Click to expand...

It sounds, to me, like they have become corrupted...

If you press CTRL + ALT + DEL twice and then type in the user/pass for one
of the accounts does it let you in?
