windows 7 creating temp user profile
So here is my deal
I have a user here on my domain, lets call it SNOW (since its snowing out). Back in November i had given userX a windows 7 on a HP505b box. When she originally logged in, it said that 7 had to create a temp profile for her. after alot of monkeying with it, i just created a folder "userX" and then windows 7 was able to apply settings and give her a local profile.
Now, I am wanting to give userX a new computer, same HP505b with windows 7, but, when i log in to create her local user profile on it, it says that her profile is a temporary profile. i logged off, rebooted, and logged in again, with the same note. i logged in as a network admin, the pc created a local user account for me on it and i can see the folder in the users folder. I then asked another lady, userY, to come in and log in, and with userY the comp created local user folder and all that jazz. So i went ahead and logged back in with userX, and again, TEMP folder appears and looking at user profiles through system properties it shows "snow/userX" and the status is "temporary".
Now here is the change up, when i log into a windows xp pro box, it creates her local user account no problem, no temp folder created or anything.
ive googled this problem and come across alot of forums and tips about how to modify the registry and the like, but all of the people complain about this temp file/folder issue AFTER they have had an account on the computer for a while.
any help into this would be awesome and legendary!!!
