I swear you guys keep me from looking incompetent! If a PC with XP Home has, for example 3 profiles, does the SP have to be installed under all of them?

When installed under user 1, user 2 and 3 lose their program menus etc on the start menu. I'm confused. We have 300 PCs to do in the community and I'm not wanting to go around them all again! How do I get the menu back, or prevent this in the future?

Hiya,

From someone who knows "naff all" about XP, perhaps you need to perform the upgrade whilst logged on as "administrator" (in an NT "stylie")?..... just a thought.

Hope you sort it, re-doing 300 PC's just don't sound like fun to me

Cheers, Sim

Your order number is 73 (waiting patiently )

Thats what I thought, but all the profiles have admin rights. If they didn't, SP wouldn't install, right? Maybe its ajust a one-off freak occurrence (I hope!)
