Guest Mathieu CHATEAU Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 Re: Urgent - SBS2003 - Preparing Network Connections - Server Restarting Hello, can you try with the network cable physically disconnected ? Can you run the Dell diagnostic tool (wouldn't be that, but must be sure) Do you have a bartpe CD ? -- Cordialement, Mathieu CHATEAU http://lordoftheping.blogspot.com "benxxv" <u30064@uwe> wrote in message news:7878103cca9d0@uwe... > Hi, > > I need urgent help..... > > SBS 2003 Premium Edition > Dell Poweredge 1800 > 2GB RAM > > My server worked fine till last night, since morning, the server is > hanging > at Preparing Network Connections for morethan 15 mins. and restarting > automatically. > > I tried Disable automatic restart on system failure, SafeMode, Safemode > with > Networking, Last Known good configuration.....all the options, the same > problem...The server is restarting automatically...... > > Please help me. > > -- > Message posted via WinServerKB.com > http://www.winserverkb.com/Uwe/Forums.aspx/windows-server/200709/1 >

Does your version of SBS include System Restore? If so then you could restore the "System" registry file to the version of last night. You can find it in a folder like this one: C:\System Volume Information\_restore{14157744-4FA2-4CAF-BAFB-72CC49941087}\RP707\snapshot 04/09/2007 21:09 8,912,896 _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SYSTEM To restore it, you could do this: 1. Boot the machine with a Bart PE boot CD (the same that Mathieu suggested). 2. Save the current "System" registry file in a safe place. 3. Copy & rename the one from the most recent System Restore folder (see above).
