Windows error

I'm in the process of migrating local computers to our domain, I had the user log in with their domain account, then log off. I then logged in with the local admin account which I created and copied her local profile over to her domain profile. When I tried logging on with her credentials it would act as if it's logging on, but then a message appeared saying logging off, and it would just keep recyling. I logged in with my domain admin account and renamed her ntuser.dat to ntuserold.dat I was able to log but I got a message saying a temporary profile has been created, so I restarted the machine and tried logging on with her domain user account, I received the following message: Group Policy Client Service Failed the logon Access Denied, and now that's where I'm stuck, I can't log onto her machine with her domain user account. HELP PLEASE!!! I've never run across that message before and I have 50 machines to swtich.

There could be two possibilities:

1>The group policies are not taking effect in your domain.
2>The profile itself gone corrupt.

Ran a gpupdate /force and check out for any userenv errors in the application log.

I deleted the domain profile completely, and repeated the the local profile migration. That seemed to work, I was able to log in with the user domain account and everything from the local profile copied over fine.
