It sounds like your XP got clobbered.  

I believe your scheme won't work anyway.  I think all users share the same screen 
resolution.  But I could be wrong.

There's another way to add a user but I doubt it will work any better than your way. 
 Right click on My Computer.  Click Manage > System Tools > Local Users and Groups 
> Users.  Then click Action > New User.
