I'm in trouble over users

[Guest cindyjames]

Hi

 

I thought I'd clean up my boss's Win 2k puter because it was slowing

down so much, so I thought since I knew all the users on our network,

and he had heaps more than that.

 

So I deleted a whole load of them.

 

And now his puter doesn' connect the network, and no internet. And most

of his icons on the desktop don't show up.

 

I read http://support.microsoft.com/kb/840001 and totally don't

understand any of it.

 

I mean like I put all the users back in from his Documents and Settings

folder. I just totally don't get all that ManagedBy and MemberOf stuff.

 

We're all just in a Users Group called WORKGROUP. How hard is that?

 

But I remember last week I started the network and his puter had some

kind of error like checksum or something, and said it was "going to

load the latest something-or-other" Hit F1 to continue.

 

I was thinking maybe if I could find that. And load it. It'd bring my

boss's puter back to before I deleted his stuff?

 

Please help, it's the weekend now, and I need to fix it before he gats

back to work Monday. Or I'm totally cooked.

 

TIA

 

Cin

Re: I'm in trouble over users

 

That article doesn't apply since you're not a member of an active directory

domain. Some specific details of what was deleted might help. The event log

also may shed some light on what system errors are present. User profiles

wouldn't be cause for no network connection.

This is just getting worse and worse.

 

Thanks for your trouble, I'm sorry I'm so thick
