Can I use xbootmgr to measure what causes a failure to present credentials screen after ctrl-alt-del?

Hello,
I have several machines that are producing the same issue that when a user reboots, they are greeted as usual with the "please press ctrl-alt-del to logon" screen.  When that key combination is hit, the info screen is gone, but the "User
logon box" never appears.  By never, I mean it doesn't appear within 2-5 minutes, and the users tend to hard reboot their computers (generally leading to more problems).
I've read that this can be caused by a variety of issues, such as DNS, cable, speed negotiation with the switch port, etc.  However, I am interested in learning if I can use xperfmgr to determine the issue.
From my testing, the ETL is only written once a user logs on to the system.
The invocation I used is as follows:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Windows Performance Toolkit\xbootmgr.exe" -trace boot -traceflags base+latency+dispatcher -stackwalk profile+cswitch+readythread -notraceflagsinfilename -postbootdelay 10 -nopopups -resultPath C:\Boot_Trace
Is it possible to use xbootmgr to measure this situation?
Thanks,
Matt

Hi,
Yes, this tool could to be used to record the boot information.
Let's make clear something below.
1. Could you see this screen after pressing "Ctrl+Alt+Delete":
2. Did you mean that the password inbox disappear?
3. Could you see above login screen when you start the computer normally？
If all is Ok when you start computer, the xbootmgr.exe - trace boot is not applied.
Meanwhile, go to  Clean Boot
to see if there is some third-party software to troubleshoot.

  • Can i use my Corp discount to buy a phone and pay the balance after discount thru Edge?

    Can i use my Corp discount to buy a phone and pay the balance after discount thru Edge?
    Are Corporate discounts usable against the full purchase price of the phone?
    How does Corporate discount work on More Everything Edge.

    Ok so another question are you going to pay full price up front for the phone, use Edge or do it on a subsidy? Also which model since they vary in price from $650-$950.
    Line fees on a More Everything plan are typically $40 per line.As I said being on Edge or being off contract would reduce that by $25 if you have a 10 GB data plan as you state you would. The 10 GB data portion is $100 but since your discount is 26% it will only cost $74.
    So to keep this simple until I get more info from you if you still had all 3 lines under contract, 3 smartphone lines and 10 GB with a 26% discount would be $194 a month before taxes and fees.
    Since you have 2 lines currently of contract, if you kept using your current phones or paid full price upfront for new phones you'd have 2 month2month discounts of $25 so that would drop your bill to $144 before taxes/fees
    If you bought the cheapest iPhone 6 on Edge your Edge payment would be $32.50 a month for 20 months. So for two iPhones 6es( assuming you got the cheapest one ) that would be $65. That would on top of the $144. So a total of $209

  • Iphone 4s will not turn on, you can not restore with itunes. What to do? Phone lit white screen and nothing can be done

    iphone 4s will not turn on, you can not restore with itunes. What to do? Phone lit white screen and nothing can be done?

    Reboot computer. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both home and power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. This usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Click the Restore button of iTunes. If still problem, all iPhone 4S have full Warranty. Make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution.

    Looks to me like I permanently deletes the message.

    Is this really a key combination you find it easy to press by mistake? To answer the question, no, it doesn't look like you can remap that, but note that if you choose Edit -> Undo immediately after deleting, the message will come back.

  • [Boot Camp] Can't send a Ctrl-Alt-Del during first boot!

    Hello,
    I just Installed WIndows Server on iMac using Boot Camp. It requires that once the password is set (per Group Policy on Windows Server PCs), I'll have to login by pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del (this is my first time login) and i'm unable to figure out how can it be done! I know that there is a discussion running everywhere about the PC equivalent "Del" key on iMac. I have tried the following -
    1. Ctrl-Alt-Del (Del is actually Backspace) : Doesn't work
    2. Ctrl-Alt-Del (Fn Key pressed down - that makes it delete) : Doesn't work
    I read somewhere that mapping a key differently should work. But i'm unsure of the process and i also understand that i'll have to do it from the OS. In my case, i'm not logged in yet! Is there someone who can help me in this regard?
    Maybe, I can use backspace and delete functions on iMac but i'm looking for a equivalent "Delete" KEY and not Delete FUNCTION to Login. If you can point me to a existing thread or post solutions/thoughts, i'll be thankful.

    The retail OS X 10.6.3 DVDs unlike your OEM DVD does have a complete set of drivers for $29 w/o having to deal with questionable bitorrent.
    Microsoft EOL'd XP and Vista SP1.
    Your Mac has Intel Thunderbolt and you don't see Apple doing backward compatibility. You can't run 10.5 on new Mac. So yes it comes with those limitations, but XP is also 20x more vulnerable, IE9 is more secure and XP has not kept up with the latest hardware, besides which I don't see a place or need for a 32-bit OS, any platform today.

  • Firefox browser will not close, even when using ctrl/alt/del

    I downloaded the 4.0 beta firefox today, and have been using it most of the day with good success. Then I noticed when I closed the browser, the icon stayed active on my task bar. I clicked the icon and the browser reappeared on my screen. I tried several times to close it, the last time using ctrl/alt/del and task manager to cancel it. Nothing worked. I have a Dell Studio 1749 with Windows 7 , 64 bit, which may be the sorriest OS since Windows Millennium. Any help I can get would be greatly appreciated.

    Isn't it {Shift+Ctrl+ESC} to open the Task Manager in Win7?? I know it was changed to that key combination in Vista.
    As far as the problem with Firefox 4.0 not properly closing, see this: <br />

    Also how can I disable Windows 2000/XP's Task Manager

    Have you tried clearing DW's program cache yet? That's usually my first step if something "just started happening"...
    Deleting a corrupted cache file
    Server updates can cause DW to need a setting change. Have you already tried toggling Use Passive FTP in your site settings yet?
    Has anything changed on your local network, like an update to a firewall?
    If you are connected via wireless router, a low likelihood but possible thing to test would be a wireless router problem. Try connecting the computer directly to your modem, bypassing the wireless router (if you aren't using an all in one modem/router setup) to see if that makes any difference.

  • I can no longer download and save files. They are now saved with a ".part" suffix that I can not use or open. What happened, I used to do this all the time?

    Downloads seem to be happening normally at first but the file shows up with a file extension of ".part" that I can not use or open. If I refresh the folder where it was downloaded to, it disappears as though it wasn't there at all.
    I used to do this and it just yesterday started to give me problems. It doesn't seem to matter what file type I do this with as PDF, MP3 and EXE files have all shown this problem.
    Please help!

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.<br />
    Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
