    Hi all,

    When users log in to the windows 2003 standard terminal server, the screen
    is blank nothing shows up on the screen after logging into terminal server.

    When I check the task manager on the TS server, the userinit.exe is launched
    after users login. userinit.exe uses 13% CPU. I thick userinit.exe causes
    users profile not to load.

    Please help and this drives me crazy.

    users can not see anything after logging into terminal server.

    Thank you.

    in addition, found out that ntuser.dat is 48 MB for each profile who recently
    logged on.

  4. The default profile sounds definitively as a possible cause for the
    problem. I'd create a new one.
