trying to do a friend a favor. they have a dell running XP home which would
not boot completely. It would lock up after the logo screen with just mouse
pointer, otherwise a black screen. I used a windows XP Pro disk to rebuild
the OS. It is up and running, however the old profiles are not available at
the logon screen. the directories are still there under the "documents &
settings" directory. is there any easy method of resurrecting these profiles
short of creating new and copying everything from the old directories?
thanks
 
Mr. Grey (and others);
I probably did not word my problem very well. I would like to be able to log
in under the user accounts that existed before I repaired the OS. The
directories still exist under the documents and settings directory but the
account name do not appear on the login screen.
thanks
