berrick Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 This my save a lot of time trying to figure whats wrong!Symptom:You reboot any version of windows, and it hangs at "applying computer settings". If a server everything works but you cant logon. You boot to safe mode, check the event logs and all is ok.IF you are running APC's power chute older then v7 and this problem started around 27/07/2k5 then beleave it or not it is this most likely causing the issue.Uninstall power chute or if unable, unistall java or disable the APC client server services and the system will boot normally and you'll be able to logon to the desktop. You'll then need to ensure you have java 1.4.1 installed at the latest version of power chute v7. Installation must be in the following order, agent, server, console and they must all have the same logon info.http://www.apcc.com/tools/download/...704&id=125&tsk=This definitely worked in my case, (was running 2k3 server APC power chute 6.2.2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warrior1109 Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 I have had this problem on server 2003, but without any software, a clean install, I haven't figured it out yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilifrei64 Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 If your 2003 server is a domain controller that is running DNS for the domain then make sure your PRIMARY DNS Server is pointing to its OWN IP address Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berrick Posted August 13, 2005 Author Share Posted August 13, 2005 (edited) Hmmmm! well when i was looking into this a lot of info pointed to this issue being a known problem that M$ are looking into.Some other things that may help are:problems with the tcp/ip stackproblems with ipsec - one suggestion here was to goto the ipsec services change something then click ok and the problem should be sorted.Another was to Disable the Network Location Awareness ServiceI cant vouche for any of the above as I knew our version of APC power chute was 6.2.2 and decided it was easier to boot to safe mode and un-install it first before trying the above. Thankfully in our case this was the solution.Hope this might helpDOH! i also remeber reading that KB893066 caused the same issue but if memory serves i only read about it effecting XP but worth a try Edited August 13, 2005 by berrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
