Windows 2003 server logon error
Hi
We have a Windows 2003 server running VMware Esxi 5.5 which is having some issues.
The logon screen is black and you can't see what i is your typing, but you can still log on.
Lately we can't log in. If you try to log in it produces an error, which is a picture of a small PC with a broken monitor.
Does anyone know what that means?
Regards.

Hi
Tried restarting, power off/on and reset.
Using RDP to log in.
If I use VMware console the screen is still black, but I can't login with either domain user or local admin account. It just shows a yellow triangle (the rest is black). Tried having another 2003 server side by side and mimicking the steps to ensure I was doing it correct but no luck.
RDP was working before, but now it's only showing that symbol (picture in my first post).

Discovered that the main issue was with domain, using a dummy network solved it.
RDP or directly thru vmware console?
