It sounds like something is toast with the DB which means it can't mount which means LSA can't start which means the box can't start.

I suggest to perform a chkdsk from the recovery console (included fixboot and fixmbr) and rebooting.

Your easiest option is likely dcpromo /forceremoval, metadata cleanup, and then dcpromo back up.

I dont see any errors related to AD. When I boot it normally, it crashes with a stop 0x0000001c (i think) and says to reboot in AD recovery mode. Maybe I just need to do a regular ol' windows repair on it? ******************************* John C.

When I have a DC down for several hours the only side effect I see if error in the event logs that clear up after an hour or so of replicating. I've had an SBS server (by definition a DC) offline for 8+hours and no ill effects powering it back up and re-synching with the other DC's.

When we finally corrected the issue, it crashes on boot and says to boot into AD recovery mode. OK, I rebooted in to the recovery mode...and it does boot successfully. But, what do I do now? Since its been so long, am I better off to just demote it out of the AD? Its a 2008 DC. I have 2 other 2008 DCs that are still up and running. Any advice is appreciated.
