Is that at the console only, admin login? What about from a workstation? What error message are you getting?

If I were a billionaire, I'd buy Norton and close the doors.

Try F8 again and choose safe mode with command prompt. If you can get to a command prompt, type rstrui.exe and press enter. Follow the instructions to do a system restore to a date before you cloned the drive.

If that doesn't work, I'd remove the drive and connect it to another PC with an external USB enclosure. Try to delete the SAM files in all locations and reinstall the drive.

Where did you clone 2003 from?

Odds are you need to do a repair install of 2003 because your clone was from a different drive letter than what its on now.
