Hi,

One of my servers is acting strange: I am able to log on to the server but
the desktop doesn's shop up. When I connect to the server by RDP (not
console) the desktop pops up and works just fine. RDP console gives the same
error as the console.

The only message in the system log is Application Error, Category (100),
Event 1000: Faulting application explorer.exe, version 6.0.3790.3959,
faulting module kernel32.dll, version 5.2.3790.4062, fault address 0x0000bee7.

The server is running Windows Server 2003 SP2 and is up-to-date using WSUS.

Is there a solution to my problem?

Regards, Lex Elzinga

The message is not in system log but in application log.

I tried to log on to the server using another user account. The server
repeats telling that the administrator is logged on and does an remote
logoff... So I am unable to logon using another user account.

Hello Lex,

What happens if you reboot the machine? What do you menat with the desktop
doesn't show up? Just a blue or black window or what do you mean?

Best regards

Meinolf Weber

I have almnost the same issue, I just posted this but wanted to post here as
well.

I have Server 2003 standard

Here are my symptons:
When I logon to the my server either directly or thru remote desktop I get a
blank desktop. If I do a ctl/alt/delete the windows security wondow comes up
but when I select Task Manager nothing happens.

I have tried this in normal mode and safe mode. I've also tried a last known
good start up.

Here is the he hisotory as it is...

Yesterday I tried to install AVG File Server Anti Virus. Each time I tired
it came back with corrupt setup files and wouldn't load. I started to follow
the instructions from AVG to fix this and one them was to clean out my temps.
I ran a program I use called CleanUp4. This just takes out cookies and temp
files, nothing else. I've used it for years.

I also noticed that notepad wouldn't run. I'd get a message to reinstall the
program.

So last night after hours I rebooted the server and here I am.

I've been searching for a few hours now. Seems the explorere.exe may not be
starting but with out Task Manager it is hard to work on it.

Any ideas oth there?

Chris

I finally bit the bullet and reinstalled the OS. It cured the issue and
didn't make any changes to any other part of the server not even my active
directory. Please keep in mind I am only running server 2003r2, no exchange
here. Chris
