    Vista Ultimate to 2003 AD Domain ---Problems

    Interesting problem...set up a Vista Utimate box at home, took it to
    work joined our W23K domain no problems. Tried to add several
    different networked printers all failed with error 0.0000005
    something. Did some research and discoverd you can't add a networked
    printer to a standard TC/IP port with UAC disabled. When I enabled
    UAC and rebooted the system ...no joy... system hung at "crcdisk" in
    safe mode.

    I my frustration I rebuilt the machine, but left UAC enabled
    everything works fine until I join the domain, which it does no
    problem. The problem is once I reboot I get the "configuring desktop"
    message it goes away and then I get a light blue screen with just the
    mouse cursor setting in the middle.

    I've let it set like this for several hours thinking it would
    eventualy give me a desktop ...never happens. The other strange thing
    is that the local administrator accout has been disabled in AD. If I
    enable the admin accout in AD I can log on locally to the box but am
    still unable to get my profile or desktop wihen I try and login to the
    domain.

    Any one have any Ideas on this?
    Thanks in advance

    We have many issues with the computer.

    1. Could 0.0000005 code is 0.00000050? This could be Microsoft Update issue.
    Check this troubleshooting.

    2. unable to get my profile: Assuming it uses temp profile, make sure you
    are not member of the guests group. This post may help too.
