Vista welcome screen logon error.

[Slinwagh]

I have had to take a machine out of the domain and now I am left with a machine that I can't log into.

The PC in question now boots to the Vista welcome screen and only shows one user account, the profile for this account is damage so when I login it instantly logs me bacl out.

There are no other user accounts listed to login with.

Safe mode just prompts me with the same user account at the login screen.

Is there a way around this that will give me the option to logon as the administrator?

press ctrl & alt & del twice at the logon screen

Doesn't work Im afraid.

To take the PC off the DOMAIN login box you need to specify this in the login box.

This is done by doing the following

LOCALPCNAME\LOCALUSERACCOUNT

Still confused? check here

I don't have the option to type anything, I just a a single user displayed on screen with the option to click on it.

If I could input the username I would be ok.
