    Wierd Problem with user accounts

    Hi

    I'm running windows xp pro + sp3 , after an update for .net my pc is acting wierd. When I start up it loads into a new user , which is labled as computor administrator , everytime. Until I log off this I can't load into my original user , which is also labled as computor admin but with my name on it.

    Although both are marked to open in welcome page it goes straight into new account , when I log off that one it goes to the welcome page for the original. It won't let me do a system restore in either to before this happened - it starts then says can't do the changes.

    When I look in the user account page in the new account it shows all 4 accounts - mine , guest ( turned off ) , ASP.NET machine A... ( limited ) , and the new computor administrator. When I look in the user account page in my original account it only shows the first 3 - don't know why.

    I would like to sort it out so it was loading straight into my original account - as it was - rather than having to log off new one first then going through the welcome page.

    Hopefully this makes sense.

    Thanks , Adam
