Are you trying to log back on with a local account or
still trying to logon with your domain account. It might
sound stupid to ask, but you did not specify. You can't
logon locally with a domain account, unless you are
allowing accounts to be cached. You need to log on as
administrator. If you have forgot the administrator
password, you will need something like ERD Commander to
change the password. That is not cheap software. So you
may have to reload. Once you are logged on locally, you
readd the computer to the domain, provided you have domain
admin rights.
