I have two user accounts on my computer already and I have created a third just to try
No dice
Right now it is in shop and just as I suspected there are files and registry keys that are corrupted
Tried to re- install windows myself and discovered Microsoft's big joke on us which is on some computers there are temporary activation key number that are supposed to be replaced by Microsoft with a permanent number which does not match the number that you are currently using
if you try to use that number it will be rejected and contacting Microsoft will reveal that after several conversations with Microsoft I am going to have to purchase a new install disc No way around it either
The shop where my computer is at has told me this is not the first time they have seen this
Microsoft in all their infinite stupidity does not always replace the temp. number with a perm. and it isn`t until you try to re-install that you find that you are the victim of their cruel joke
Quote from Microsoft your computer comes with a temporary number that registers and is (supposed to be )replaced with a permanent validation number but sometimes it is not
Thank you Microsoft for allowing me to spend more money on your product (read that last like with sarcasm )

If you read my reply to Partha you will see what I am up against
Will update as soon as I get my machine back (as soon as I get my pay check probably end of Jan.)
Thanks for your help
