- logon screen keeps repeating
- Posted by johnb on February 16th, 2004
I have found that very often when I reinstall an image
file of a system back on to a pc when I attempt to logon
as administrator or another user I can enter my details
and it goes off saying "loading personal settings" as it
should then it just goes back to the logon screen. This
cylce continues until I select shutdown and I cant get in
to the desktop. Can anyone please help?

thats weird, are you loging on locally or to a domain.
You may need to go in locally and add it to the domain if
you're using a ghost image, and if its 2000, you might
also need to run ghostwalker to change the sid number.

I had the same problem using Drive Image 7 on a Windows 2000 box.
Every time I reinstalled an image from within another W2k installation
the restored windows cycled through the logon message.
First attempt: using PQRE (Recovery Environment on bootable Drive Image
7 - CD)
This works, but booting the CD takes about 10 min.
Idea! Perhaps W2k must be prohibited to access the partition during rebuilt.
Second attempt: deleting drive letter of the specific drive. The
partition still resides on my hard drive, but no normal process can gain
access to it.
Heureka. The rebuilt system starts and the login process works fine.
Btw. recreating the pagefile as suggested often did not work on my box.
Hope, this will help someone.
