Windows 2000 freeze at log on screen

The computer seems to be freezing right before the login screen comes up, it just
sits there. I have tried to reboot in safemode and the same problem arises in safemode....
anyone have any ideas? The computer gets through the splash screen but right before
the username/password screen comes up it freezes just before that point.
I can see from that setup screen and splash screen that drivers are loaded, services
are started, but the logon process doesn’t. I tried with safe mode (with or without
networking) and also with Last Known Good Configuration. This marks the end of the
early startup process. But the same thing.
I thought one of the hard drives is corrupt so I even done the chkdsk/r from the
recovery console. But the report says no bad sector or anything. I was going to run
fixmbr and fixboot but then for some reason FIXMBR doesn’t trigger anything.
The think the start up registry is corrupted for some reason. Before I restarted
the sever, I could see that I couldn’t run Disk Defrag. That’s the reason why I restarted
the machine and that’s why all this problem occurs.
Since I have never installed Windows 2000 Server with Active Directory and Citrix,
I am quite hesitant to format and reinstall everything although I do have all the
data back up and system state back up.
Any suggestion or help would be extremely appreciated.
Thanks in advance
