A few days ago I could not log on to my administrator account for my labtop><>< equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> This error can usually be fixed by following the steps below. Doing all this
requires a certain level of computer skills. You know yourself best and
whether taking the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a
BigComputerStore/GeekSquad type of place) is the better solution for you.
1. Log into another user account with administrative privileges. If you
neglected to make an extra administrative account do Steps 2-3. Otherwise
continue at Step 4. Also see the general information about setting up user
accounts in Vista at the end of this post.
2. Boot into Safe Mode. Do this by repeatedly tapping the F8 key as the
computer is starting up. This will get you to the right menu where you can
use your arrow key to select Safe Mode [enter]. The built-in Administrator
account is disabled by default in Vista. However, if no other
administrative accounts exist on the system it may be enabled. If it is,
you will see an icon for Administrator on the Welcome Screen in Safe Mode.
Log into Administrator.
3. If If you don't see the icon for the Administrator account in Safe Mode,
then the built-in Administrator account is still disabled. You will need to
use NTpasswd to enable the built-in Administrator account (disabled by
default) and set a null (blank) password. Enabling this account will put an
icon for it on the logon screen so you can then log on.
Download the CD image (.iso) and burn as an image, not as data. You will
need third-party burning software. Then boot with the CD you created and
follow the directions. After you've finished with NTpasswd, remove the CD
and reboot the computer. Log into the Administrator account you enabled.
4. The critical files are under %systemdrive%\users\user-account\ntuser. The
ntuser.dat file is actually a registry hive. Run Regedit elevated and
select HKEY_USERS and "load hive" from the menu. Now navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
There is one line for each profile. If a profile is bad, check:
a) That the key name doesn't end in ".bak" (remove .bak if there)
b) That the RefCount value is 0 (change it if different)
c) That the State value is 0 (change if different)
Make any necessary changes, close Regedit and try to log in as that user.
5. If that doesn't fix your profile, it is corrupted. At that point you can
either make a new user account and copy your data to it or simply make a
new user account and delete the old corrupted one. Do not delete the old
account until you have retrieved data you need! Post back if you need help
in creating a new user account and copying data to it.
General information about setting up users in Vista - You absolutely do not
want to have only one user account. Like XP and all other modern operating
systems, Vista is a multi-user operating system with built-in system
accounts such as Administrator, Default, All Users, and Guest. These
accounts should be left alone as they are part of the operating system
structure.
You particularly don't want only one user account with administrative
privileges on Vista because the built-in Administrator account (normally
only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you're running as
Administrator for your daily work and that account gets corrupted, things
will be Difficult. It isn't impossible to activate the built-in
Administrator to rescue things, but it will require third-party tools and
working outside the operating system.
The user account that is for your daily work should be a Standard user, with
the extra administrative user (call it something like "CompAdmin" or "Tech"
or the like) only there for elevation purposes. After you create
"CompAdmin", log into it and change your regular user account to Standard.
Then log back into your regular account.
If you want to go directly to the Desktop and skip the Welcome Screen with
the icons of user accounts, you can do this:
Start Orb>Search box>type: netplwiz [enter]
Click on Continue (or supply an administrator's password) when prompted by
UAC
Uncheck the option "Users must enter a user name and password to use this
computer". Select a user account to automatically log on by clicking on the
desired account to highlight it and then hit OK. Enter the correct password
for that user account (if there is one) when prompted. Leave it blank if
there is no password (null).
After you have logged into an Administrator account (after Step 1 or
possibly Steps 2-3), try a System Restore first. This may fix the issue and
you will be able to log into your user account without going through the
rest of Steps 4-5.
This method looks quiet complicated but it really works ! If after u have changed the file's name still cant log on u can try to change ur password and restart again then try to log on using ur new password ^^
I hope this can help u if ur vista system occur the same problem .
Lastly thank you for the source from Windows Vista forum :))) XD

<$Busy week two$>

This week past super fast^^
Went for badminton trial on wed with sweety and her classmates. There were so many girls went for the trial on that day !!! around 100 people like that . We were sitting down there doing nothing at first it was so disorganised ><><>< ^^HAPPY BIRTHDAY LARRY !!!^^
The celebration was unique I think . Although we planned so many ...however it didn't turn out as we expected >< since larry was so "clever" Our plan were special and fun :]
Let larry turn many rounds then send him into the female toilet then take pictures but he refused to go in half way through
then we plan to feed him cheese fries all at the same time . accidentally he heard our plan then we change to feed him the chilly sause. but in the end he started to eat all the chilli sause on his own :) that was amazing !!!
We felt so sorry for larry cause we did not prepare any present on that day except touchingah's love journal and super small cake . Since we are very busy these days and our lessons all end at different times it was really difficult for us to meet up and buy present T.T
SORRY AGAIN ... I will try to get it by next week>
