    Found This

    Hi

    I found this info. Not sure which way you are using Windows..... ctrl+alt+del should bring the TM out BUT if you do not use the Welcome screen log on or are joined to a Windows domain then press ctrl+alt+del & then click the Task Manager buuton in the Windows Security dialog box.

    Regardless of which system to log on - have you tried Ctrl+shift+Esc ?

    This should work regardless of config.

    Hope this helps ;)

    Let me echo Abraxas - And the event log entries when you have the failure are ___?? (errors and warnings are all you need to pay attention to in this instance)
