Hello,

I've been working with my computer with XP Pro for 2 years
without any problems. One week ago funny things started to
happen:

1) I can't play audio files. Windows Media Player throws a
message saying that is has a problem with the sound device.
The error number (C00D11BA) doesn't help further.
Other audio programs don't play audio files either.
2) Some software throws strange messages, too (e.g. Roxio
Direct CD says a certain drived is old, which it is not)
3) I've lost my network places. I have been able to restore
the list by typing in the IP addresses and shared folder names.

NOW: None of these problems happen when I log in as admin.
They appear only then is log in as normal user.

The only thing I have changed on this PC is installing a
trial version of AutoCAD that runs online (through an
AppExpress server). Don't know whether this has caused the
problem.

Has any of you experienced similar problems?

Thanks in advance for you input.

Miguel
