Have you tried to connect to the event log on that machine remotely across the network to see if anything is in there of any use ?

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??? Thanks Russell --------------------------------- Want to chat instantly with your online friends? Get the FREE Yahoo!Messenger
