Just out of nowhere, I turn on my computer, starts as usual with the Windows XP logo with the scroll underneath. Then at the WELCOME page a box pops up titles User Environment. In the box it says: Windows can not load user's profile but has logged you on with the default profile for the SYSTEM. It goes through a countdown and acts like it is going to load but the screen is just BLUE, no screen SAVER, nothing. I tried turning it on and off a few times. Other times on the blue screen it would have my icons, but will not open any of them, an error box comes up. Now, when I reboot in Safe mode it works fine, although I noticed audio does not work. So why work in safe mode and nothing else? If anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated!!!! Thank you!!! I have to add, my computer is getting up there, I got it in 2001 for college. People tell my I should get a new ONE, but everything is on there, files, music, etc... I really don't need a new computer at this point in time, this was still getting me by.Tried creating a new user account yet?
