Yes, I am able to access the login, and I can login successfully but no icons just a blue screen appears. Also, there are no error messages at all.

Few things to try:

Did you install any hardware or software recently? If yes, boot to safe mode and stop the services of the hardware or software recenlty installed.
1. Boot to safe mode, press F8 during restart.
2. Services - Start | RUN and type Services.msc

If you don't get to any screens, right mouse click

1. Right mouse click on Desktop | Properties | Settings | Advanced | Troubleshooting and bring the hardware acceleration scale to NONE and restart and try again.

If this didn't help, try booting to Windows 2000 CD and do a Repair.

Can you try logging in with a different user account and see if you get the icons, etc. If so it's just the user profile that's cuffed.

Hello,
Someone working for us had an accident last week and trapped a large number of Discs in the safe door. In consequence to this the discs got smashed, such as Windows Server 2003, Windows Advanced Sever 2000 & Windows Server 2000. I was just wondering if you would make me a copy of your windows server disc and post it to me? This is completely legal as I will be using my existing serial number. I am willing to pay the costs to produce the disc and post it. Please can you help?

Please E-mail zakflemingo@gmail.com

Thanks

Zak

You know this isnt illegal i have telephoned Microsoft they say it is allowed because i am using existing COA, Serial numbers! It doesn?t matter what type of media you use, you can boot from a network location that is copies of the files. The thing that matters is that it is genuine serial numbers.
