Hi, I had a power outage at my office today and found everything off when I came in. When I powered on the Server PowerEdge 2008 running win small business server 2008, it took me to a page called System Recovery Options. First page is asking "Select a keyboard layout". I hit "US".
Second page shows me a window "To access recovery options, log on as a local user.
To access the command prompt as well, log on using an administrator account."
User name: Administrator - it's the only option it provides.
Password -- I enter the admin password I've used since we bought the server but it keeps telling me "The user name or the password is incorrect".
I cannot get around this problem. When I try to log windows normally, the system brings back to a page asking if I want to Repair (which brings to me System Recovery Options) or Start Windows Normally.
I need to get passed this page or somehow log in in Safemode if that is even an option. Can someone please help me?? and forgive me in advance if this post is the wrong place.
Also, I'm not technical in the least bit. I have very minimal knowledge of stuff- small company so I had to learn about everything. So i'm the "tech guy" among many other things. thanks everyone!
