mstsc.exe has gererated errors

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.work_remotely (More info?)

When I use RD I am able to log into my machine from
another on the network but after login RD crashes w/
following message:

mstsc.exe has generated errors and will be closed by
Windows.
You will need to restart the program.
An error log has been created.

First, I have always been able to use RD and have never
had this problem.

Second, I have looked but fail to find an error log.

Third, the affected machine is the only one and is new to
this network. Also new to the senario is a usb wireless
NIC model mn-710 from Mirosoft.

Any input is always appreciated. Thanks in advance...

I take it the errors ocurred under a non-administrative level user?

What happens if you create a NEW limited user--does RD work OK?

I'm wondering whether this is either a software conflict of some sort with
other things installed for the particular user, or, perhaps a corrupted
profile for the user which gets the error.

I don't know a lot about how to fix corrupted profiles--I think using the
files and settings transfer wizard to try to export stuff, and then
re-creating the user would be the thing to do.

You should probably ask about this in some other group--not sure which,
though!

As I understand it, there's no simple repair for profile issues. So--if
there's nothing important at stake, you just delete the user and profile,
and re-create them.

Profiles can be managed in Properties of My Computer, advanced tab, middle
panel.

Delete is about all that can be done here, however. If you need to move
things like Outlook Express stored messages, Favorites, and the like, I
believe the way to do that is with the Files and Settings Transfer
wizard--but I've never tried to use it for this purpose.
