This is very strange...

My Vista profile is fine, but if my son logs onto his profile, then we
switch users to my profile, my profile is not readable, Vista accepts my
password, but displays a generic profile for me. That means my email is not
configured, and my desktop with my icons are not displayed.
This was a fresh install of Vista, and all the user accounts were migrated
from another XP Pro machine, which continues to run fine.
Running Vista Ultimate no domain membership.
AMD X2 6000 processor 2GB RAM, Nvidia 7900 video, 500gb sata drive....

Has anyone every heard of this strange behavior?

Thanks
-Tom
