I have a network I help adminster which has one user whose profile has been corrupted twice in the last month. The machine seems stable and I am baffled as to what the cause of the problem is.
I have two questions.
1) How to recover quickly from this problem.
2) How to diagnose the cause of this problem.

Last time it happened, I ended up deleting the corrupt NTUSER.DAT and copying folders from the documents & settings to recreate things for the user. It was time consuming and a royal pain.

Will the Emergency Repair disc fix most of this? Naturally, I did not have one last time mad

If there is a pointer to a FAQ that deals with this issue I would greatly appreciate it. I looked in the MS Support database with keywords Windows 2000 Corrupt profile and it did not offer much help.

Thanks
