I have a WHS system that has been working flawlessly for about a year. The OS is on a pair of 640GB WD drives in RAID 1, and I have two 1TB Greenpower drives for data.
Last week my working PC would not completely boot into Win7. Instead I got a black screen with a cursor. That's it. No sidebar, start menu, nothing. I could ctr+alt+del to the task manager and see that several services were stopped. I logged off and it turns out the WHS server was locked up. Rebooth the WHS server and my PC then logs normally.
This has happened three times in the past week or so. Each time I reboot the server I find nothing in the event log except an unexpected shutdown. I thought that might be my server reset, but the time is wrong. The only other abnormality I can find is that the MatrixStorageManager has to fix several verification errors in the boot volume. It reports the status of all drives as "normal".
I'm not sure where to go from here. Is a drive failing? Is there a know bug that would cause this?
Also, any idea what is preventing my PC from booting when the WHS box is locked? Other PCs in the house boot fine.
