Has the system registry has been configured to shutdown when the security log is full?
You could go into recovery console, and rename %systemroot%\system32\config & rename SecEvent.Evt Or boot the server off a BartPE/UBCD disk, open the security eventlog on the server, save it off & clear the log. You can do the same thing with Application & System, that might give you something else to look at.

I have a Dell PowerEdge with Windows 2003 Standard Server. Someone with admin rights has done something to the server. Issue: When powering up the server, shows that it is loading, gets to the grey screen with status messages. When it gets to 'Network Connections' there is an error message stating that a service or drivers did not load and to look at the Event View for more details. It then shows the login screen for a split second and then Windows performs a shutdown. This happens when I try to go into Safe Mode, as well. Ideas? ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
