Guest behemoth Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 Hi, Our server crashes almost Two times by day : the screen is grey and we can move the cursor. It doesn't respond to ctrl alt suppr but we can ping the server. No particular evt. Installing SP2 hasn't changed the problem. Any advice ? Hervé -
Guest Meinolf Weber Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 Re: Grey screen and mouse cursor Hello behemoth, Can you connect remotely to the event viewer to check it for errors?

Guest Meinolf Weber Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 Re: Grey screen and mouse cursor Hello behemoth, So you have errors in the event viewer? What kind of them? Is it always the same time when it happens? Maybe some software brings the server to this state or Virus, malware etc. Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. > Hi, > > During these crashes RDP don't work but yesterday I had the same > problem and unfortunately there were no errors related to this crash > (in event viewer). > > "Meinolf Weber" <meiweb(nospam)@gmx.de> a écrit dans le message de > news: ff16fb66656868c9e6db88820e66@msnews.microsoft.com... > >> Hello behemoth, >> >> Can you connect remotely to the event viewer to check it for errors? >> >> Best regards >> >> Meinolf Weber >> Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and >> confers no rights. >>> Hi, >>> >>> Our server crashes almost Two times by day : the screen is grey and >>> we can move the cursor.

Guest behemoth Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 Re: Grey screen and mouse cursor Forget this solution. The server still crashes even without RDP.
Guest dfaasfwwerwer Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 Re: Grey screen and mouse cursor Hi am having this same problem. I have not had the opportunity to restart the machine yet but came in after a day off and my server was at gray screen with just mouse cursor. could not directly link any errors to this issue in event viewer, except there were several SBS2003 security patches that went out on install over the holiday when i wasn't here. Server was fully functional and issue free when I left the office not 48 hours ago RDP is not able to connect.. it says RD has disconnected please try again or contact administrator (me) ha ha. Should I be able to see a terminal services certificate server if I had been using RDP previously? I am unable to find this service... although all the proper services seem to be running on the server when i connect via computer management. Server share seems to be fine so all client computers are happy, I just can't get in to manage anything. SOS!
