  The Case of the Mysterious Blank Desktop
Time: 12:03 EST/17:03 GMT | News Source: Microsoft | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Once upon a time there was an Administrator who had to deploy hundreds of desktops to his respective organizations. He told that the deployed desktops should be running Windows Vista and should have all the common user business applications installed and ready to go when the user received their machine and logged on. Our administrator duly created a new image and deployed it to his first group of users having first pre-staged the computer accounts in his Active Directory. All appeared to be going smoothly, until … the first user logged on with their domain credentials. Nothing. No icons, no taskbar … nothing. A beautiful blue background was all that he was presented with. The system was present on the network, had applied the requisite group policy settings, on the surface – all seemed well. What happened?
