I have had a Win2k network for a few months now. But lately if my computer crashes while im logged on (And I have to do a power off using power button) then when i turn it back on, and try to logon again, it freeze's with a complete HAULT. If I logon as another user on my computer, it works fine. But what I have to do to get back on is delete my profile completely, then let it make me a new one. Why is it doing this? It ususally does it after my computer crashes from messing around with my domain names in Web Folders.
