For months now, booting went straight into windows (normal)
This morning, it suddenly showed an old User and required a Pwd to logon to windows. None of my normal Pwds are working therefore cannot get in

Tried Safe mode as Admin and cannot reset passwords this way.
Tried control userpasswords2 in Run and could not go any furhte
Tried mmc in Run to try to reset passwords but was unable

Can anyone help...??

Thanks, Kar
 
Hi Karl,
I am also facing similar problem. I have a dual boot (Linux & XP
home) installed on notebook untill yesterday I was able to logon to
XP Home without any kind of user authenticaton dialog but since
today morning I am getting authentication dialog with missing users
(a default user has to setted up first time starting XP Home) missing.
I don't know whats going wrong, all my emails are there. Please
update this thread if you find any solution.

Thanks,
Sam.
