user environment windows cannot load users profile but has logged you on with the default profile for the user system
I have tried one of the articles listed below the other is not really applicable.
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q248040
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q246936
Also I wanted to a repair on the system. It has SP4 but I cannot repair it because the registry is corrupt. The server is a DELL PowerEdge 2560. Now it has a Adaptec and Dell Raid controllers and the OS is one one parition on an arraid array integrated into the server. But back to the point I even ran a CHKDSK -r and -p no luck. When I right click on my computer and click on profiles users profiles u get this error: User environment in the registry is corrupt.
Can anyone please help to fix this.

This solution is only available to members.

You can also try editing the Registry..but this can be dangerous...here goes, for Win 2000 terminal server sp4 clients:
1. Locate the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\
2. Implement the following registry settings:
PoolUsageMaximum=dword:000
PagedPoolSize=dword:ffffff
3. Restart the computer.
To try to reduce the size of the registry on Windows 2000 Professional-based computers that are affected: 1. Click Start, click Run, type ntbackup, and then click OK. Click Emergency Repair Disk.
2. When the following message comes up:
Insert a blank, formatted floppy disk into drive A: and click Ok. Also backup the registry to the repair directory. This backup can be used to help recover your system if the registry is damaged. Ok
When you click OK, you can disregard the following error message:
The operation failed. The drive is not ready, or the diskette is not inserted properly.
3. Create a new Regback folder in c:\winnt\repair. Close Windows NT Backup, and then start the Registry Editor.
4. Click \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, and then click Load Hive on the File menu.
5. Open the c:\winnt\repair\regback folder, click Software, and then click Open.
6. In the Key Name box, type software.good, and then click OK.
7. On the Registry menu, click Save Key.
8. Restart your computer with the Windows 2000 CD-ROM in your CD-ROM drive so you can so you can boot from the Windows 2000 CD.
9. Start the Recovery Console, and then type the following commands. Press ENTER after each command:
cd\winnt\system32\config
rename software Software.bad
rename Software.good software
10. Restart your computer.....
Error code 1009 is always returned as the NtStatus code for the Windows API MyRegLoadkey. This code maps to the configuration registry database as corrupted: ERROR_BADDB or STATUS_REGISTRY_CORRUPT. This is misleading if the loading of the registry hive failed because of other causes. If the RSL is exceeded, the correct NtStatus code is 1450, insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested: ERROR_NO_SYSTEM_RESOURCES or STATUS_INSUFFICIENT_RESOUR

Well registry is limit is 85MB and is currently only at 15MB. ANd I have tried UPHClean but this is some other problem. And due to this being enterprise server I cannot reinstall it.
