Reboot clean - log in with the user's local account and use the Files and
Settings Transfer Wizard to export the users profile (pretend this is the
old machine - store the profile on the machine.)

Reboot clean, log in as the users domain account (It would be best if it was
a clean/fresh/new account...) and then use the Files and Settings Transfer
wizard to import the profile which you saved above. (Pretend this is the
new machine.)
