Hi,

Today I'm experiencing issues logging into my PC. Never had this issue before.

I have Vista 32 (gonna upgrade soon) and the last thing I remember doing was on Chrome browsing amazon. And Anti virus was doing a scan. My power went out in the middle of me on my pc. (Just went out for 10 seconds then went back on.) I have it on a heavy duty surge protector.

Giving the error when attemting to log in... User profile service failed the log on.

I'll probably take apart my pc if I need to. Just asking you guys on here tho.

Thanks much.

your user profile got corrupt most likely

try this, to restore:

spam f8 as you start up PC>safemode w/ networking>once you're in search/open run for rstrui.exe>restore to an earlier point

if you search the web there's other ways of fixing, which includes messing with the registry or creating a new profile and copy+pasting. all of these methods will fix your issue
