I have a stand alone Windows 2000 computer my daughter has been using.
This week, for some reason, no one can log in, neither my daughter or myself with either a user or administrator password.
the error is "the system cannot log you on now because the domain Family_AMS is not available".
"Family_AMS" is the name I gave to that computer, and it has worked well enough for a few years.
We have other computers in the house, and a home network, as well as a work group, and generally, all the computers can see each other, though, of course, we cannot see Family_AMS anymore.
We had just updated virus defs and run a virus scan, so it is unlikely it is a virus, but who knows.
I was able to log on to the computer with the Windows CD using the Control panel, but I don't know what to do once logged on.
Would appreciate any help anyone can provide.
thanks
