Why can't I Remote Desktop into my Win2k3 machine?

I could earlier today, but after I was messing around with PowerDVD / graphics acceleration settings for some reason I can't Remote Desktop into the Win2k3 machine anymore. I still have console access, just no remote desktop access.

When I try to log in I get:
Loading Personal Settings
Applying Personal Settings
Pause (no desktop view, just nothing on screen)
Saving Personal Settings
Logging Off

Under My Computer -> Properties -> Remote
[X] Allow users to connect remotely to this computer

Just for good measure (even though it's already an administrator account) I've added in my user account under "Select Remote Users".

Under Adminstrative Tools -> Terminal Services Configuration -> Connections
RDP-tcp is started

Under Adminstrative Tools -> Terminal Services Configuration -> Server Settings
Licensing = Remote Desktop for Administration

Under Administrative Tools -> Event Viewer -> Security
Success Audit (for when I attempt to Remote Desktop in).

I still don't know why I'm being kicked back out.
 
Sounds like you need to undo the changes you made to the graphics acceleration settings. I know that my 2003 Server machine doesn't care what setting the acceleration is set to, but your mileage may vary.
