      What have you already tried? If you can tell us the fixes that you've already tried, then we might be able to come up with some new ideas. I certainly don't want to start recommending possible solutions that have already failed for your particular problem. It would be a waste of everyone's time. Can you please tell us everything you've so far done to remedy the situation?

      Also, can you tell us if you made any changes to your computer right before this started? Did you install any new programs or download anything, make any changes to the settings at all?

        Well, I have tried to make user accounts "basic" while I'm on the hidden administration account so basically my windows anytime upgrade disc won't work.  I've also tried deleting registry keys, unlocking hidden administration account, and making new account from control panel but it seems like I cannot get into the control panel as when i click on manage other accounts it does nothing. I tried to format by pressing alt + f11 on start up (i have ac er) but all it says is I get some error called "error 4" but then it says the program will shut down this has been happening multiple times.
