Cannot find Users Profile.....
 
Thats what my Desktop is saying when I switch it on ???
It looks like the wife has switched off the system at the socket.
All it is giving me is a blank blue screen.
What could be the problem here ? (other than the wife !!!;) )

Try loading in safe mode (press F8 as Windows boots).

wont boot up into "owners" at all but in "admin" I am getting just a black screen with "safe mode" in the corners and thats about it :confused: no icons, nothing ?

Sounds like corrupted Windows files. Do you have any important data you want to recover? You can run the Windows install & go to the recovery console, however this can sometimes destroy some data.

hmmm ? I'm confuesd (nothing new there as far as PCs are concerned:D)
Everything seems to be fine now ? I unplugged the slave drive and the main HDD seems to boot up fine. Would a corrupt file on the slave HDD affect the initial boot up ?
