Well, this is very odd. I've experienced NO problems with win2k as of yet, but of course I knew things were too good to be true.
First of all, I know this wasn't what I should have been doing, but I was always just using my Admin profile since I'm the only one using this computer. Well, today when I rebooted, I don't know why but windows wanted to check my drive for consistency. It found a bunch of cross-linked files and stuff in my profiles dir.. ok, there's the first red flag. Then when it continues to boot up, and I try to login as admin, it tells me "This profile is corrupt, and another profile will be loaded.
So, it loads that, and I find out all my programs, start menu programs, ICQ doesn't have my user list.. etc etc. Wow, that's fscked up. I check my profiles folder and notice I have one called Administrator.bak So, I renamed it to just Administrator. Logoff, then back on. Doesn't give me a corrupt error this time, but still no changed settings. WOW.. ok, I check again, and it created a new profile called Administrator.computername. I tried to rename, move, copy that folder and it won't let me. "System folder cannot be renamed or moved"
So, I'm out of options, I was going to reformat kinda anyway, but this wasn't under the circumstances I wanted to do it. Any suggestions?
