hello josh

there quite lot of  reasons behind problem. there couple of things should verify in order solve this. check similar thread , let know if helpful.  

    but in nutshell:

    there are plenty of reasons account being locked out. important reasons listed below:

    • some services use credentials in their start up process. have determine if have correctly set user , password services in "services.msc"
    • check credential manager for wrong configured user , passwords.
    • mapped drives wrong credential can cause "login failure" event.
    • check your environment for "conficker" worm. there handy tool detecting conficker in network can downloaded from here. 
  • eventually event "login failure" can lead account lockout problem. must check event viewer such events.
