Kicked back to Ctrl Alt Del Screen

[tomscaper]

I am having a weird problem with our machines, does it on all machines with Windows 7 on, when i log on i press crtl alt del put my username and password in, it starts to log me in says logging on and then kicks me to the ctrl alt del screen, i can then retype my username and password and it logs me in as normal.

I am not sure if the power saving is causing an issue all i can tell is the screen turns off after 10 mins and the pc goes to sleep at 30 which is the standard i think.

We had this very same problem, try changing the Power Option "Require a password on wakeup" to "No". This seems to fix the issue.

Thanks i will try that, where about is that, and can it be set by group policy.

Have this problem also, its only when a machine wakes up from sleep, and went to sleep / hibernate at the logon screen (no previous user live).

 

Accepts user and pw then puts back to CTRL ALT DEL screen.

This is a known problem with KB977074. A hotfix will be available in October 2010. In the meantime we found that the best solution was to uninstall this update.
