NTldr Problem... Did I cause it?

Twice, we have lost Tomcat servers running WIN2K. Both have been NTLDR problems, and both happened when I was the person using (via Remote Desktop connection) the system. As far as I know, I did nothing to precipitate the problem but, as you might expect, I am the one being blamed. One time, the system crashed mid-operation. The second time (yesterday), it was a scheduled reboot that failed. Did I really cause the problem? How? I never touched the boot record or associated files. If you can offer suggesitons, recommendations, or expressions of sympathy, I would appreciate it.

Hi Mark,,,you didn't do it MS did it :) The NTLDR can go bad in a heart beat...once you have over control to a new machine "via Remote Desktop" it can and sometimeswill nail the PC ,try using VIC. win2k is not setup to use R.D. like XP is. Read the links below they may help. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTLDR http://www.wisegeek.com/ http://www.wisegeek.com/technology.htm
