When I tried to log on to my computers profile this morning I recieved the message ''The user profile service failed to logon. User profile cannot be loaded.''
I tried the usual restart the computer and try again, but that didn't work and as mine was the only profile on the computer bar the default I am currently running in safe mode. The first message I recieved when I entered safe mode that was my profile couldn't be loaded, and to check the error log. I have no idea how to do this, so if anyone could point me in the right direction I'd be grateful, or even better if you know a quick fix for my problem.

This has happened to me once before on Vista; a system restore will fix it without affecting your files significantly (your desktop will be returned to a previous state but that's about it).
However, you only had the one profile, so I cannot solve this particular problem. If anyone else can offer help on at least getting you to the system restore program somehow, then that will solve everything.

I looked around the computer's help files a bit and managed to get a system restore, worked a treat. Thanks a lot.
