Hi people, Even if I tried to start session locally, or by remote desktop, its impossible to do it. Only one domain user can do it, domain administrator cant...Local users can...The problem is that starts session, explorer process shows in task manager, but only a GREY SCREEN is displayed....The domain user that starts, was the one who installed the programs currently installed (command view, hp sim, ....)any idea???thanks in advanced

Hello,would be nice if you can give some info about OS version, SP/patch level and if this machine belongs to a domain, which it sounds like. Are you able to insert the domain username, password and choose the "logon to" domain name?

Hello, The OS is Windows 2003 R2 SP2 Enterprise Edition, last level of windows update patches. Logon screen always its showed (even in local, even remotlely). Its in a domain. The problem is that only a user domain (who was used to install and configure most of the server...) is the only domain account that can be logged all the rest displays the grey screen (but you can open task manager as well).If I create a local account (users groups), you try to logon and stopped at the Personalized Settings small window, with the message: Setting up personalized settings for: Windows Desktop Update and stops there.... any ideas?

Hello,logon as the local machine administrator and check the event viewer for error, choose safe mode booting if normal doesn't work.Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

Nothing in the event viewer....I can logon with local administrator and the domain user account mentioned ....

Hello,are this new created user accounts? Or exisitng ones with maybe broken user profiles on the server, then delete the user profile and try again.Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

Then it works, all the people could log in.Then i enabled all from boot.ini etc....and it worked....but, when I enable all the services....it didnt work....so...im going to do a filtering...service to service restart to probe it...
