The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Ghost v8.2 DOS XPSP2 Logon then Windows Logs Off

Title:  Ghost v8.2 DOS XPSP2 Logon then Windows Logs Off

Environment:
Windows XPSP2, Standalone/non-domain pc with a Ent. Vol. License product key.
I keep my support pc off the domain, after all how can I support a down domain if I’m a member of the mess.  And my mess doesn’t affect the domain as much. ;-)

Anyway, I'm trying to upgrade my HDD.  I’ve done 100s of Ghost images over the past 5  years.  But this windows problem I can NOT figure out.

Using our Corp. Ghost v8.2 DOS, I copy partitions from two drives to a new 250GB, partitioned to 100GB, 150GB.

I have Defragged and CHKNTFSed, before ghosting via direct IDE to IDE, partition to partition copy.

The image creation always goes smooth without an error.

Windows boots fine and I can logon, it briefly show something like loading desktop/profile/settings or whatever that normal loading message is.

However Windows immediately Log’s me Off.  Logon > Windows logs me off, repeat to frustration.

I thought something was wrong and since I have the original drives still working fine reboot with them to check that everything is fine, and then re-Ghost.

But same logon / log off  error.

So then I try a third Ghosting, but logon / log off  same error.

Any suggestions very much appreciated.

The EE article link below I found should NOT apply for many reasons:
1.      It is the only PC, I’m not making a copied PC.
2.      It is the only one the network.
3.      It isn’t logging onto a domain server.
