boot problem

[Guest Randy Starkey]

Hi,

 

I just installed a new app, Symantec system recovery console, and the server

(2003) I installed it on now refuses to boot either normal or in safe mode.

In safe mode, it seems to hang at a certain driver.

 

If I choose last known good configuration from the F8 menu, will this create

UNC rollback problems as this server is an AD along with my main server. Or

will it handle that issue?

 

Thanks!

It's a bit ironic that the installation of Symantec System Recovery

prevents your system from booting. I hope that you have a recent

backup of the System State.

 

I don't think that booting into LKGF will do any harm but it probably

won't do any good either. What exactly happens during a normal

boot? How far does it go? What messages do you see?
