I do not want to format a server this weekend and re-do a domain on Monday.
I have a client that has a newer Dell T310 - 8GB - Xeon 2.4, SBS 2011.
Just went to a clients to move the office from one building to the other, couldn't log into the server so went to the terminal and saw the machine wasn't responsive in windows - users still able to access files and Quickbooks. I had to force shut down the machine.
Now I fire it up, it gets to the login screen, and when I log in it gets stuck on the welcome screen. I can get into safe mode, i do not see any errors in event viewer that jump out. Hard drive lights are blicking like crazy at the welcome screen. But still can't get into it, and then the machine seems to lock up.
Memory test is fine. Safe Mode seems fine, or atleast responsive.
May have some failed updates, but can't get into Regular mode to restore.
Any ideas?
