Hi group. Just bought a new HP ML370G3 server with dual processor, and
having a nightmare trying to install Windows 2000.

Newly installed server, Windows 2000 without any domain.

After installing service pack 4, reboot, using the administrator password,
we cannot login even though we know that the password and id is correct.

This has been the 10th time reinstalltion, hence it is impossible that we
don't remember the password. I'm really stumped at this.

Is there a known bug in SP4 installation? SP4 installation went fine without
errors, but after rebooting the server, we're not able to login.

I have never encountered your problem but have you tried
to solve it by viping out the administrator password?
There are free software on the net for this - just do a
google.

Cheers & Peace
