Windows 7 (the trust relationship between a workstation and domain has failed)

Commonly this means the system account is no longer present in AD.
If the machine was loaded with a sysprep'd image the local Administrator account is disable during deployment.  If there is no other local administrator level account to use you could use a bootable offline password tool like Microsoft Dart to enable it.

I spotted this on one of my domain PC's the other day. I removed it from the domain and rejoined it, and the trust was recreated and the error went away.

that worked out perfect. Does anyone know what causes this problem? When i joined the laptop to the domain i was on our wireless i am starting to think that i should be hard wired when joining a PC to a domain instead of the wireless. thanks
