Not sure what is going on...

User has a Dell Inspiron 3500.

I enter my username and password and hit OK. I get
the "Loading your personal settings..." and "Applying
your personal settings..." windows, then it jumps
to "Saving your settings..." and bring me back to
the "<CTRL><ALT><DEL>" screen.

I've tried multiple users and both the network domain as
well as the local computer.

I've run a repair from the Windows 2000 CD (no ERD), but
no luck.

Any ideas? I'd hate to have to rebuild this system.
 
Try to view the Event Viewer logs on that computer remotely from another computer and
maybe you will get a clue as to the problem and also try safe mode. If you are enable
to determine the problem from Event Viewer you may be able to boot to Recovery
Console to make repairs. Another possibility is to look at the W2K registry repair
utility, though I have never tried it myself. KB249321 below may also be another
reason with suggested repair. --- Steve
