explorer doesnt load for domain users
an office computer had problems, so i fdisk-ed it and
reinstalled winXP pro. now, domain users logging into machine have no desktop icons, start bar, nothing except solid blue (not BSOD)! ctrl+alt+del from there comes up normal, with choices for taskmgr, logoff, shutdown, etc. admin accounts (domain and local) load properly. taskmgr said processes not running for users (but do for admins) are userinit, devldr, and explorer! why? there are no group policies set on the server cuz i'm not familiar enough with them! and anyway, we have other XPPro workstations that dont have this problem. thanks in advance. |

Log in as administrator and check the event logs.
Are you using roaming profiles? Can you temporarily disable roaming profiles for one of the users and log in as them successfully? mikeindo wrote: an office computer had problems, so i fdisk-ed it and reinstalled winXP pro. now, domain users logging into machine have no desktop icons, start bar, nothing except solid blue (not BSOD)! ctrl+alt+del from there comes up normal, with choices for taskmgr, logoff, shutdown, etc. admin accounts (domain and local) load properly. taskmgr said processes not running for users (but do for admins) are userinit, devldr, and explorer! why? there are no group policies set on the server cuz i'm not familiar enough with them! and anyway, we have other XPPro workstations that dont have this problem. thanks in advance. |

explorer doesnt load for domain users
i did and the only thing remotely interesting is in its
Application section: "sec policy in group policy objects has been applied successfully." but i havent set anything in any snap-ins, so the the policy would still be the default. and we dont use roaming profiles. but i went into gpedit.msc and found "use local profiles" and enabled it, to be sure, but didnt help. other thoughts? thanks again... -----Original Message----- Log in as administrator and check the event logs.
