This time not on a server fortunately, but my main pc. It started off with strange symptoms, could not get Internet, could not get network.
IPconfig showed no ip address and an ipconfig /renew gave the error “an error occurred while renewing interface Local Area Connection : the rpc service is unavailable”
Checking the RPC Services they are all automatic and started, however when entering properties of them both the options are grayed out so I can not restart them.
Thus I re-booted my machine only for it to halt on the Verifying DMI Pool data.
After some research I booted into recovery console and ran a fixboot and fixmbr. This totally goosed the drive, and gave an invalid partition table error.
Booting into Ubuntu live I could not see the disk at all, Knoppix was the same…
Too late tonight to sort it, but I fear that all is lost.
