HElp HELp !!!

When I hit CTRL+ALT+DEL on the NT Server, I should see the option box to Locked Workstation, or select Task Manager, or Shutdown ETC.... I don't see that anymore?

instead it goes to username, password and domain window, when I click on cancel it locked the server, to unlock it same procedure just like your unlocking the server.

No software or Hardware we're added, but I change the administrator password last week.

I hate to assume it's this simple but, it sounds like you're not logged in. Until you log in you will not be able to get to anything.

I found another possibility. Look at Q174840, if you are using IE, just type q174840 on the address line and hit enter. Otherwise, go to microsoft.com, select search and enter q174840.

I'm sorry to confuse you, I was log in as Administrator. I'm trying to locked the Server. when I do CTRL+ALT+DEL am not getting the option box im supposed to be getting. instead, I'm getting the username, password and domain window.

Thank you foryour help.

Got to agree with answer one. You're not logged onto the Server. Logon with your new Admin account and password.

If you had left it as a locked workstation then chances are something has caused your server to re-boot while it was locked which is what has confused you.

check your event viewer and try to discern whey the server's crashed, if you know for sure no-one has restarted it or there's been no power outages....
