Nice one.  Found a key called WallpaperStyle = 2.  Removed the key and
everything went back to normal.

 

Thanks a bunch.

I think this is due to registry keys located under
HKey_Users\.Default\Control Panel\Desktop. The registry keys in here define
the appearance of the desktop before the authentication process is complete.
Try copying these registry values from a working server.

I have an annoying problem that is getting more common.  I have Win2k3 MPS
3.0.  If I reboot a server and then try and connect to the server too soon
it will give me an error message about not being able load the mandatory
profile.  The next time I log on I get a huge splash screen (The one that
reads Metaframe XP Presentaiton Server for Windows), this is normally a
small splash that appears when you log on to a published desktop.  Does
anybody know how to prevent or even better yet how to fix it?

 

Thanks,
