AD users and computers console issue

I have an AD 2008 R2 environment.
When logged in as administrator into one DC I cannot see any computers in the AD users and computers console.
When I log into as a different domain admin user to the same DC I can see them all.
If I log into another DC with both users I can see everything.
Anyone have any ideas as to why this might happen and how to fix?

Sounds like a corrupted profile. Remove the domain users profile from registry and delete their users folder to recreate.

Delete profile from local registry of DC in question?  Do you happen to know where that is located in registry?

Before you rebuild your profile try to clear all MMC content in the following location:

C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\MMC

The try to access ADUC again
