yes i am positive that i typed it in correctly because it did not notify me that the password was incorrect. and when i said brand new i mean past few months new so i completed all the registration things. I did however try copying the account over a new one i made in safe mode which i managed to successfully do although it too would act in the same way. I finally decided to simply system restore, luckily i had one from yesterday so i chose that one and it worked. I think it was a problem with vista style builder because that was the program i installed that system restore was undoing. so a quick system restore solved my problems. The system restore in windows 7 is magical. I have only used it in xp and that was terrible.
Thank you...
