Hi, I have a windows xp 2003 server. When I boot up, when it suppose to appear the ctrl-alt-del login screen, the screen is black in colour. I tried ctrl-alt-del, and i saw cursor moving. and when i type, the cursor did move. So i was thinking whether i can try to login. And kudos, i managed to log in to see my desktop and stuff. However i need a solution to solve the login part. Why did i not see the login window? Anybody got a solution to this?
