Unable to login to Win2K3 [Parameter is incorrect]

p4tp4t SG

Recently, unable to login to the Windows anymore. When typed in both correct or incorrect logins, the error message is "Parameter is incorrect..."

The DIY pc uses Win2K3 OS, with broken mirror (failed RAID) and have to enter "Continue" whenever it prompts in a BIOS setting window during every restart.

I doubt the failed RAID affects the login. Any idea? Remote desktop access has failed as well. Previously still able to remoate access just that not able to login.

Access services to the server is not interrupted so far though.

Appreciate the help.

Cheers

Try disabling RAID.

It's either in the BIOS or needs to be triggered by pressing a series of commands.

I doubt the RAID affects the login (I'm using administrator). Previously after the failed RAID, I was still able to login as per normal.

I heard that once the Events Log is full, it will affect login, but only the user not administrator.

It will depend on your RAID settings. Personally, I have not seen RAID affecting the log in... but who knows...

Yes, if the Events Logs are full, no user will be able to log in except the Administrator. Or users with Administrator rights will be able to log in.

software or hardware raid?

Hardware RAID...doubt this affects the login.
