Hello,
So, I've got this really weird issue when I log onto my laptop. I upgraded a
little while back, to the release candidate of XP SP3, just to see how it
would work out. I've been able to reproduce this problem pretty easily, too,
so I'm wondering if anyone else has it.
The problem is: When booting up the system, the logon screen comes up pretty
quickly. Typically, this would be a good thing, indicating that your system
is booting up quickly, however, when I do type my credentials, and hit ok
quickly, the system appears to be logging on, but then shows the "Applying
computer settings", and after that completes, it kicks me back to the login
prompt.
Let me reiterate this problem as a series of steps.
1. Logon prompt is displayed
2. I type my credentials, and hit ok, quickly, just after the prompt is
displayed
3. I see the "Applying computer settings" window (rather than the "Applying
your personal settings" window)
4. After several seconds of loading, I get kicked back to the login prompt.
----
So, there you have it. If anyone has seen this before, I'd be curious to
know if there is a resolution to the problem.
Thanks,
