standard user can't log on

I'm the administrator for my son's Vista Home Premium machine. I had set him
as standard user, with parental controls. Suddenly he can't log on (system
hangs when he tries; CTRL-ALT-DEL brings up the "log off" option which gets
us back to main log-on screen). I've tried rolling back to known good
points, problem still happens. I've tried with parental controls on and off.
I've tried creating new standard accounts -- same problem recurs. Any
suggestions or thoughts? Thanks.

The screen also goes blank. I tried setting up new accounts and doing the same. Would love back any feedback possible, have no idea how to fix this.
