    Corrupt Local User Profiles in NT4 Workstation

    Sorry to sound so thick but what am I searching for? The incorrect path which the icons are being placed? If so I have done this and it doesn't appear in regedit....both on a local PC and on the server.....so yes a more explicit suggestion would probably help me!!

    PC Reboots sporadically and freezes - any suggestions ?

    I've seen this problem a couple of times in one case it was a faulty memory module so you could try swapping it out this would cause the 'freezing'.
