I got an error message the other day, and like a jackass I didnt wrtie down what it said. The next day I logged on to find out some of my programs had been erased and I noticed that all my cookies were gone(Internet explorer favorites, stored passwords, etc). Even my background was gone and the original generic XP background was there.

Now everytime I logon I have this problem. I get al the promtps you get during your initial XP logon everytime I turn on my computer now!!(the windows xp tour thing, all the little help bubbles and everything.)

Direcd also pops up a window that says it can't detect a cd recorder even though I have a plextor installed.

What the #$%^ is going on?????!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like your user profile is damaged.

Create a new user account and see if the same problems happen when you log on/off with the new user account.
