From the PDC after I create a new user account and then log on as the new user the new user profile dialog box never appears. DrWatson Nonfatal Error appears with only the desktop color behind it. The message is An application error has occured and an error log is being generated.
explorer.exe

Exception: Access violation (0xc0000005), address 0x70f34450

Everything else seems to work ok. I had the BDC disconnect when the trouble began so I took a chance and promoted it to PDC then demoted the PDC and hooked them togeather.Then sync'ed them hoping it would strighten things out, but that almost screwed up the promoted BDC. It tried to do the same thing only it would start to build the profile and then give a message about the registry possibly being corrupted. I pulled the plug on the NW cable to the demoted PDC and ran scandisk on the PDC/that was BDC it got happy again and seems to be ok.
Any help would greatly be appreciate.
