blank screen after logo

the wonderful explorer page fault, thats a tuff one. It could be so many things. If you can access the system try to download the latest updates or Try disconnecting the system from the network manually and then start it up & see if you can get the desktop. Either way if you can or can't get to the desktop I would suggest re-installing windows over the existing install. Which won't erase any files or data on the system. If that still doesn't work try to back up all needed files from the server & FDISK the drive, then install w98 se again from scratch.
Alot of time to trouble shoot it, but one of those should work.
good luck

Check the video drivers to make sure the drivers are updated,this may be causing the blank screen.

Boot up in safe mode check to see if active desktop is turned on to view as web page if it is turn it off then restart.

Let me know if this helps.

My first question is ..Do you get past the logon screen . If yes then you will be able to access network drives from clients . It seems like the server becomes busy in trying to re-establish network drives after the logon , but it is unable to connect . It could be a startup utility that fails to start or interferes with loading of explorer.exe . Right after the logon prompt press ctrl.Alt.del and see what programs are running if you see an unnessesary utitilty or map network drive or a suspected virus end task it you might have to do this a few times until you find out which program is causing the problem . once you successfuly kill the problamatic program explorer will start normally . Also note in the "close program window" if explorer has loaded .
