Ok, Safe Mode was a no-go. First, the account I wanted to delete was a
Limited account and apparently Limited accounts don't show up when in Safe
Mode. After changing the account to Administrator I went back into Safe Mode
and still got the BSOD with same error when trying to delete.
Rebooted back into normal mode and went to Event Viewer to find the dump
produced and navigated to it. yes, its full of gibberish to the naked eye,
but after scrolling thru I found the Fatal Error and a Stop so I backed up in
the dump from there and saw the last thing trying to process was Macromedia's
Flash driver or something like that. Went to Documents & Setting and
navigated to the user's application data folder and manually deleted the
Macromedia folder and did the same int ehuser's Local Settings folder as well.
Now I went to delete the account and, voila! It worked.
Great piece of detective work. Glad to hear that you were able to
resolve your problem.
