Anyone any idea how to change my log in ??

[Kenny]

Seems simple...but last night whilst perusing this great site my screen went haywire with 1,000's pixels etc etc. I couldn't see the screen so couldn't turn the PC of as nornal...had to use the plug

Anyway...took out the graphics card and cleaned it of dust etc etc but now when I switch on as windows welcomes me, a small box now appears and says ( something like ) 'cannot recognise user profile, contact your administrator' I have ( no choice ) to close this box then another opens up and states it is creating a temporary user log in for me !!

If I go into settings all my photos, files etc etc are there and I can access them but the desktop and user are temporary only..so for example logging into this site, it won't automatically fill in my log in details and I have to do everything everytime I boot in as I start from scratch again.

Was going to take it in for maintenance ( new usb 2 and maybe a flat screen ) update tonight but would like this solved.

Has it happened to anybody else ?

PS Screen seems to be working OK now after I gently wiped the graphics card ... just this non user profile recognition to sort out

perhaps it's a hint

Hi Tim, bastard !!

With my knackered shoulder..needed an easy time..then this happens

Incidently..meeting H at Loggerheads a week Saturday on way to Dragon...although it may be about 10.30 so a tad early for you
