Unable to enter user accounts on restart fix
Recovered from scary scene using Windows XP. On restart, got to light-blue Windows screen where you choose account to enter, and could not enter into the second account I created to surf the web, the PC would just freeze. Also could not get into original account, after typing password, PC would just freeze. Both failures occurred at least twice.
And all I had been doing prior to this happening, was innocent: reading academic articles about causes of brain-component structural changes, using Outlook Express to create pages recording my notes, using Notepad for notes.
I felt sure I was going to have to expend wasted time money and energy, lugging my PC to the local PC shop a couple of miles away, so that the Omniscient boyish Chinese-Americans Sam and Dave could fix it, and lecture me about how the use of Internet Explorer, not porn, is the root of all evil.
I felt persecuted. Microsoft had just announced the end of support for XP. The faces on the omniscient TV looked macho and scary. I had just been in my notes somewhat clashing with big-time Harvard medical experts re pot's impact on brain-component structures. Deep inside I felt as if the inability to get back into the PC, was a cruel trick unleashed upon me by all-knowing all-powerful hacks who were even smarter than the Harvard brain-research scientists.
Then I resorted to attempting a trick I found worked before a few months ago, when I thought the situation was hopeless: disconnection of things connected to the PC followed by restart. This time all I disconnected was the modem, the head-phones, the microphone, and the scanner. Then I restarted the PC, and presto- magico, I was back to normal; and, after I reconnected what I had disconnected, as with the first success, things continued to be back to normal.
I wonder what percent of PC repairs that cost big-bucks, actually constitute something simple as the PC worked as soon as the repairman got it because it had been disconnected from everything but the repairman pretended it was a complex expensive expert laborious fix.
