I have recently built a new computer to use as a server. I loaded on windows server 2003 and installed some other software (Nero, office, symantec antivirus etc) I used it for about 4 days with no problems, when suddernly it decided not to boot up. When it gets to the Windows Server 2003 start up page with the scrolling bar it just stays there, with the bar still moving.
I have left the computer on for nearly 4hours to see if it ever moves on but it doesnt. I have disconnected all non-essential connections so there is only the vga screen and keyboard and mouse connected.

I just intalled Windows 2003 Server on a new computer and it worked OK all afternoon but now it gets stuck at the scrolling bar screen and it will not accept keyboard input so I can't use F8 to get to the emergency menu and use Safe Mode. Any ideas? Is Windows 2003 Server unreliable?
