OK, I know this topic has appeared before, but please take a look. Previous
solutions I have found don't seem to apply here.

We have 15 workstations running Windows XP Pro on a domain with Windows 2003
Server and Active Directory. No roaming profiles, just a home directory (My
Documents) mapped to the server.

Frequently, users try to log on to a system but receive the 'Cannot Load
User Profile' error message (see below for exact event descriptions). It
seems that ntuser.dat cannot be accessed because it is being used by another
process. I don't believe the profile to be corrupt because a reboot will
solve the issue.

This occurs to several users on several workstations.

Please help if you can! Thanks.
