Title: Windows 2000 Log on error
Post by: AlanDanner on September 27, 2006, 06:27:07 PM

I am using Windows 2000 professional, OS, which was installed on the machine at purchase.  I received a Windows update which was installed yesterday.  The computer was restarted after install was complete.  Now it will not boot.  I am receiving a Log On Message which reads,  The system could not log you on.  Make sure the user name and domain are correct. . ......   I do not have anything like this set up on my computer.  It is asking for a PW and there is not one set.... I have tried to log on under admin with PW blank and this did not work.  Windows will not allow the computer to load beyond this point.  I can not get into the computer to do anything.   Any suggestions????????

When you say "admin", did you try the user name "Administrator"?
