We needed to backup a drive from another computer so the second drive was removed from this machine and replaced with the drive from the other computer. We booted the machine and backed up the files. We then removed that drive and put the original drive back into the box. Upon reboot with the original drives the Win2k Pro box came back up to the logon screen. The tech who uses this machine logged on, it showed the usual screens about applying security policy etc. ,the welcome to windows music played and a few seconds later we got another logon screen. We repeated this several times with the same result. Here is what we have tried so far: Boot into Win2k safe mode. - We logged in and got a warning about the virtual memory size and upon hitting ok we were rewarded with another logon screen. Boot into Win2k safe mode command prompt. - We got another logon screen about a minute after logging on. Booted from Win2k CD repair -> recovery console. - When we selected the C:\WINNT directory we got an immediate reboot of the machine. Booted from Win2k CD repair -> Repair installation. Replaced all changed files. Again, the same cycle of logging in and then receiving another logon screen. Any Ideas?
