Windows logon process BSOD

[bobsa32]

Hi,

I've got a Windows 2003 SBS on an hp ML370 G4, at the weekend the cleaner switched of the server to plug in a hoover, when i tried to reebot the server this morning i got the following error:

The windows logon process system terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0x00000080 ......

the system has been shut down.

I cant start in safe mode, last known good conf doesn't work, I really need some help.

Regards

This is usually due to a software component that may have overwritten an important Windows dll. Have you installed anything recently between reboots of your server?

Does the system give any sort of STOP error code?

Could also be a hardware component that might have an isssue too. Can you run hardware diags in SmartStart?

BTW is that the real reason or are you having a laugh with us?

honestly thats the real reason, the company in question use contract cleaners, this little woman didn't realise that the server couldn't be unplugged.

anyways, i did a repair install on win2k3 server and all is well.

Thanks for the responses everyone.
