Hello Im looking for a solution.
We have xp pro.
I have 5 user areas (I have teens)
When one of us logs out using change user and then proceed to the other user, it almost boots in then shall restart without any prompts.
This has been the case for a week now. Very frustrating as before we could just tag team, go on for 5/10 minutes then swap with all users not having to log in fully all the time.
Hopeing the solution is easy :sad2:

Ok so I feel like a bit of a dunce :dunce: as I have solved this one.
Time to get to anything these days seems my biggest hurdle.
I did a system restore from a month back just to be sure.
In reading a blog or two apparently xp can do this if some programs arent compatable with the running system.
My daughter had downloaded 'Windows Live messenger 8.5 1235 Beta'.
Im asuming this was the problem. If anyone is in dissagreeance they could please leave a reply.
Thanks again I love to come on occasionally and get lost in this forum its taught me so much :cheers2: cheers

Glad you managed to sort everything on your own; that's a great feeling. :D It's hard to say what applications are responsible for that sort of chicanery, but that never matters if it's fixed.
