Lost all my Users

[Carl Knoch]

Started PC and at the Windows Login Screen there are no
users listed. I hit C+A+D twice to get the login screen
and input the usernames manually. None of them are
working. I tried Safe mode, with the same result.

I tried resetting lost password with a Linux Bootdisc and
a program that would be able to reset the passwords, and
it tells me that there are no Users in the registry.

How do I recover, or in this case remake the users
without being able to boot into Windows to do it?

HELP

lost profile

Logon to another account with admin privilege and run System Restore.
Choose the most recent restore point and SR should restore the user
hives.
