����d try unplugging the machine from the network and booting it. It probably won���t help but if the network initialization is causing the problem then take away the network. It would seem the drivers are the problem or part of it, though, and that would����t stop them from loading. Wild shot.

The only message that I am getting is the failed service or driver message while Windows is loading. I get the grey screen, I see the Status messages, but just as it is getting to the Configuring Network Resources(?) is when the error message comes up. And I don't have to click 'ok' to get rid of the message, either, because just as the login screen appears, it changes over to Windows is Shutting down. How do I go and look at the Event Viewer in Recovery Console? I thought it could be done...but memory fails me... been busy day...

Though I have to admit that the recovery console has only helped me in 3 or 4 cases over the years. The advent of BartPE and the like have made it a heck of a lot easier for the majority of cases. Can you edit the appropriate parts of the registry to disable drivers and services from a Bart boot disk? I don't think I've never tried. -----Original Message----- From: Kurt Buff [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, June 01, 2009 6:56 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Windows 2003 Server Issue.
