Default XP ends right after start

Hello,

while trying to perform a system rollback to a prior date (without an urgent
cause), I ecperienced this problem:

Since the rollback routine tried to launch Windows again, there is a forced
logout immediately after a very short display of the empty desktop. This
also occurs in protected mode, even when I try to login as administrator.

Maybe the rollback routine throws me out, but it could also be just a
coincidence and there is a virus ore something like that on my computer
(protected with Kaspersky). Or is it something completely different?

Thank you for any help!

Best, Emil

Hi, Emil.

Sounds like your user accounts are corrupt.
You can try the following options.

1) When booting hit F8 to reach the system troubleshoot menu and chose
the option "Boot to last known-good configuration".
This works just like system restore with the exception that you do not
get to choose the date yourself.

2) Boot to safe mode and try to log in as administrator and create a
new user account.

3) Boot to the operating system CD and chose Repair to reach the repair
console.
While there, type the following command: FIXBOOT

Are you referring to System Restore by any chance?

If so, many users have reported that Kaspersky interferes with SR. You
should be able to run it using the method outlined he

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/304449

But...

If there is no "urgent cause," why do you wish to run SR in the first
place?!

If you see things like:

Windows is starting up
Loading your personal settings...
XP startup sound and brief flash of desktop perhaps
Logging off
Saving your settings
Loading...
Saving...
Loading...
Saving...

It is something completely different.

You can try to see how far that KB304449 gets you.

I tried this before, but the effect is the same (immediate log off). Windows
seems to define this defines this as a good configuration, as Log in works.

2) Boot to safe mode and try to log in as administrator and create a
new user account.


I tried this, too, but logging in as adminsitrator also generates an
immediate log off.

3) Boot to the operating system CD and chose Repair to reach the repair
console.
While there, type the following command: FIXBOOT


If you mean booting to the cammand line: I tried this, but I do not get a
command line, but I get to the normal Windows log in page.

Any ideas?

Hi Daave,

yes, I am reffering to SR.

The method described in kb/304449 does not work, as I do not get a Command
prompt when selecting this boot option. I get to the Windows log in page
instead.

I tried a SR because my Windows configuration started to act weird in some
details after my last Windows Update, such as not remembering the toolbar
configuration of Word, and the like.

Any ideas?

Emil

The usual course of action is to identify the particular update and
uninstall it. Then you could post here for more help:

microsoft.public.windowsupdate

Regarding System Restore not working, you could always disable (or
uninstall!) Kaspersky. But it is important for you to be able to enter
Safe Mode with Command Prompt. So, when you press F8 repeatedly after
you turn on your PC, do you ever get this menu:

http://79.170.44.116/jpt-solutions.c.../boot-menu.jpg

If so, you need to use the arrow keys to highligh the correct option and
then press Enter. If not, perhaps there is something wrong with your
keyboard (or you may need to use a different type ... do you use a
wireless keyboard by any chance?).
