Good Morning

Server 2003 standard

Here are my symptons:
When I logon to the my server either directly or thru remote desktop I get a blank desktop. If I do a ctl/alt/delete the windows security wondow comes up but when I select Task Manager nothing happens.

I have tried this in normal mode and safe mode. I've also tried a last known good start up.

Here is the he hisotory as it is...

Yesterday I tried to install AVG File Server Anti Virus. Each time I tired it came back with corrupt setup files and wouldn't load. I started to follow the instructions from AVG to fix this and one them was to clean out my temps. I ran a program I use called CleanUp4. This just takes out cookies and temp files, nothing else. I've used it for years.

I also noticed that notepad wouldn't run. I'd get a message to reinstall the program.

So last night after hours I rebooted the server and here I am.

I've been searching for a few hours now. Seems the explorere.exe may not be starting but with out Task Manager it is hard to work on it.

Any ideas oth there?
