No problem.

Well I am close to trying to contact Hp and Dell and see if they have any ideas.

Windows 8 is a useless OS that Microsoft released that has many flaws and bugs. DO NOT USE IT. Use Windows XP or Windows 7.

@Dellinsp531

6 Different Computers ?

Sorry, But At This Time I Am Only Capable Of Stupid Suggestions.

Do Those 6 Computers Have One And Exactly Equal Specific Hardware Device Model ?

Is Any Of Those Computers Portable ?

Can You Take It To A Different Building Or Geographical Location, And Test It ?

Thinking Outside The Box, It Seems The Problem Is Not Computer Related, At All.

Sorry, But As I Said, At This Time I Am Only Capable Of Stupid Suggestions.

Nope, they do not have same hardware.

Nope, not portable. They are towers.

Well suggestions is a suggestion if it solves the problem that it does not matter what kind it is.

@Dellinsp531

What About Software ?

Did You Install The Exact Same OS From The Same DVD ( Or Something ) For All Of Them ?

OK, They Are Not Portable, But Can You Test One In A Different Place, As I Suggested Before ?

Stupid Suggestions Are Hard To Run Out, You Know, Because Something Really Weird Is Going On.

Different Software on each machine except the 3 HP: 2 have same software and 1 has different software installed after OS. But not now since it was reinstalled back to original state. I do have backups made of what was on their before reinstall.

The OS is from the restore DVD that came from each computer so the three HP have their own restore DVD, 1 HP has its own, and 2 Dell have its own. Using different DVD to reinstall OS.

The OS is Windows 7 prof so that is the only thing that is the same on all machines.

I might take a few of them at home over the long weekend and work on them at home but the locations should not have an impact. They already are moved from their original locations.

The clients are almost close to scrapping these machines and getting new if it can not be fixed. Gave them loaner systems for now but they would like to know what the problem is since they had many more of these system in place. Plus it is three different clients so it is strange that all would have similar problems.

Puppy linux is a small distro. You might want to try Ubuntu.

If you want to use puppy, what is the error message?

A new addition to this problem has happen. The systems that had this problem have been replaced. There are some system that shown no problems and were left in service. The problem has show up on the system that was left over and did not have this problem before but had a new thing happen.

Here is what the user reported. She log in into the computer and got the please wait screen. But after 5 mins of waiting, the computer start the log in. The start menu is a black color instead of the normal blue color. She called down for help. I start to check the computer and notice that she had adminstrator access now but she is not set up for adminstrator access. She log in on a replacemanet machine and got here regular user account access.

What could have cause this?

I check the eventvwr and it is clear. Not events are recorded, which is strange.

Has anyone had this happen or similar thing happen?

Plus this person is not a very techinal and there is no sign of virus or malware on system, scanned it a few mins ago.

Currently have unplugged the computer from main network and put it on a separate network, which only has this computer and dummy server with no access outside to monitor activity. Gave her another machine for the time being. The machine has not been turn off since not sure if it will happen again if restart.

Any ideas???
