Full Version: Unable to login Windows 2008 occassionaly
I setup a Windows 2008 Enterprise server on DL360 G5 in February. I have experienced 4 times when I login it just stay at the "welcome" logo, with a continuosly circling circle on its left, and it remains like this for ever. Every time when I met with this problem, I have to force shutdown the server. Is there any idea how I can go about to resolve this problem?
System event has one consistent event about WMI, eventid 7023 logged every minute: "The WMI
Performance Adapter service terminated with the following error: Unspecified
error". In the application event, these 2 events have been constantly logged
every few seconds: eventid 3002 - "The performance counter explain text
string value in the registry is not formatted correctly. The malformed
string is . The first DWORD in the Data section contains the index value to
the malformed string while the second and third DWORDs in the Data section
contain the last valid index values." and eventid 10 - "Event filter with
query "select * from __instancemodificationevent within 30 where
targetinstance isa 'Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfDisk_LogicalDisk' and
targetinstance.PercentFreeSpace < 1 and targetinstance.Name != '_Total'"
could not be reactivated in namespace "//./root/CIMV2" because of error
0x80041002. Events cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem
is corrected."
Now the logon problem is no longer just 'occassionally', it has become very consistent.

Other information:
1. I am able to remote desktop to the virtual machines that are currently hosted on this Windows 2008 server
2. I cannot remote administer this Windows 2008 server whenever this "logon to Welcome loop" happens, for example if I use computer manager, and connect to the server, it will also shows the continous rounding circle, forever
3. When I use Hyper-V manager to try to manager the Hper-V on this server, it shows "Connecting to Virtual Machine Management service....", and remains like that forever.
4. Remote force shutdown: shutdown /r /m server, cannot work, just waiting there..

WAG - bad RAM or bad hd cluster, heat, low power.

I have another server of the same hardware configuration. These I've already ruled out: 1. RAM, HDD bad cluster, heat.
