Stuck in "cMP mode"...

Well, I guess it's better than being stuck in "XP mode"...

No matter how many times I click: "start XP" > OK > OK > X > "Yes" (to the "cMP restart?" prompt), the computer does a cMP refresh and returns to the main cMP screen.

Repeated clicking of the "X" does not break out of this loop. Setting diagnostics to "Yes" does not help (just more OK buttons to click through !).

Manually killing cicsMemoryPlayer.exe and starting explorer.exe restores the desktop, but again using the Shutdown/ Restart dialog has no effect... the desktop remains.

Reset button reboots the machine, which goes directly into cMP.

Does anybody know the secret of returning to XP mode ? Please point out the obvious thing I've missed.

I should mention this OS is XP Pro-SP1 (don't ask...), with all the prescribed optimizations (including minlogon). Earthwatts EA-430/ GA-G31M-S2L/ E7400/ 512 mb Hyper-X LL/ Juli@+BNC mod.

Cheers,
Grant
