I try to get into user accounts and I can't. It lets me double click but does
nothing. there are no passwords or anything I just can't open it up. Can
someone please help me? Thank You! ~Christina
 
Hi

Click start/run, type "control userpasswords" and click ok - does this open
the users applet?

I just tried a system restore at least 5 times and that didn't work. Is there
a website I can go download for free the user account? I got my computer
frome renta center and it's paid off and they didn't give me a cd for windows
xp. So I can't reinstall the cd. Get I get a free thing from a website for it?
 
I tried that Rick and it didn't work either. The compaq support site told me
to do system restore I tried that too on several different dates and nothing
frome them too. I'm getting frustrated!!
 
Hi,

Expand a new copy of the control applet. Start/run msconfig, click on
"expand file" (general tab)

File to expand: nusrmgr.cpl
From: X:\I386
To: C:\Windows\system32

Where X is whatever letter is assigned your CD drive (you need your WinXP CD
for this), change it accordingly. If your system was preinstalled, you may
find this instead on the hard drive under C:\Windows\I386. If so, change the
"from" line accordingly. This assumes a default installation to C:\Windows.
If your installation is in a different folder, such as C:\Winnt, change the
"To" path accordingly. Reboot when finished.
