Windows logon failure

It seems that you have tried the usual recipies to resolve
your looping logon problem and that none of them had
any effect. I now wonder if your machine had some hard
disk problem all along and that some files or the registry
suffered some damage that manifests itself in this loop
phenomenon.

If this was my machine then I would take some drastic action:
- Back up all important data files.
- Boot the machine with my WinXP CD, then perform
a Repair installation over the top of the existing installation.
- If this fails to resolve the problem, format the disk and
start afresh.
 
Here is a long shot: If your friend's PC has a live
connection to the Internet, and if your problem disk
is connected as a slave disk to that PC, and if your
friend is prepared to let me have a look at your disk
via this PC then I can do so by using a reverse WinVNC
takeover. If you're prepared to consider this desperate
measure then drop a note to (e-mail address removed).
Change both letters "z" to "s".

Has 'Ribs' tried to hit F8 > select boot to 'last known good configuration',
or 'safe mode' and troubleshooted there?
I tried this on a HDD I just cloned. It goes to the logon screen but there
is no message politely telling me "windows is Loading" or users to load. In
both normal and safe mode I dont get a chance to logon. I figure its probably
a wpa thing maybe?
