Don't know if this is relevant, but I just read elsewhere about someone having the same issue and this link was referenced by an MS support rep. http://support.microsoft.com/?id=249321 Ray at work, late damn it -----Original Message----- From: Etts, Russell [mailto:retts@xxxxxxxxxx] Hi guys I have an issue that I have never seen before. One of the guys here upgraded his PC from 98 to W2K. When we enter the username and password, the machine starts to load, then starts to shut down and brings us back to the password screen. No errors. I can't even get into the event viewer. Any ideas???
