I had my 1.2 Athlon OC'd to 1.4 and running fine for a while. Deciding that I didn't need the extra power/heat/electricity, I set it back to 1.2 (133x9) and lowered the vcore from +.1 back to the default. I boot up and log in to Win2k. I go to grab a snack. When I come back the thing has crashed/rebooted on me and is running scandisk with all kinds of errors. Well I put the +.1 vcore back and left it at 1.2GHz. When I try to log in, Windows tells me it can't load my user profile and load the default instead. It also says "Detail - not enough storage to process the command" or something like that. It was the profile I was using when the thing went haywire. All the other user profiles are ok. I guess I could just set up a new user and copy the files over... but is there a way to fix this?

If chkdsk or scandisk can't fix it then you'll have to do the copy-way.
Moreover, it seems you are using FAT16 or FAT32. Unless you use this for a good reason you should convert to NTFS. As this is a journaling file system errors like this are less likely.
