problem. In my situation the c:\windows\system32\userinit.exe file was no
longer being used. It had been switched in the registry to a bad copy of

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>You will need to use something
like BartPE to boot up and edit the registry (<a

change the key back over so that it uses userinit.exe. In some cases the
userinit.exe file actually gets overwritten but you should be able to pull it
off the bartpe disk.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Once you boot in bartpe, use the
command prompt to open regedit. You’ll want to click on HKEY_USERS
then load the hive C:\Windows\System32\Config\software and save it as something
like myHive. Open it up and find HKEY_USERS \ MyHive \ Microsoft \
Windows NT \ CurrentVersion \ Winlogon and changethe value back to
c:\windows\system32\userinit.exe. When you’re done, you want to makes
sure and unload the hive then reboot.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:1.5in'>Recently I cleaned off a PC at our
church that had 5 different viruses/Trojans on it. I use Bitdefender to
scan and clean the system. Once I got the system cleared I rebooted the
system and attempted to log in. However, the only thing the system does
now is log on and immediately log the user out. Any ideas of what might
be wrong or what I can do to fix the problem?<o:p></o:p></p>
