W2K startup

[Tester]

Hi there,
Is there a way for me to see or know what W2K is loading at startup when the
bottom bar with horizontal stripes then turning into solid line is going
across the bottom and before the GUI screen?
One W2K server we try to restore unto different hardware locks up towards
the end of that line and staus there. Thanks a lot, Calin

If you want to know whats loading during startup, then you can enable 'Safe
Mode with Enable Boot Logging option by pressing F8 to get into Safe Mode
Menu and then selecting 'enable boot logging'. This will create a ntbtlog.txt
in the %systemroot% directory. That will tell you if any device drivers
failed to load.
