No, tried safe mode by pressing F8. Tried booting from DVD to try a startup repair and to check the HD.

I have System Restore Disabled because I use WHS to make nightly backups. So if I can't get this fixed real quick I'm just going to restore from a backup.

Thanks!

Actually I'm not going to restore from a backup because that would be dumb. It would just restore the wrong drivers again.

I'm going to just do a fresh install and restore my data from a backup.

Not sure what you mean? Are you telling me to Google for an answer? Because if you are, I did, and didn't find anything that worked. Trust me, I was up until 2AM working on it last night. Today I'm grumpy and it's not getting that much time from me!

Oh, I understand now! Sorry! Yeah I don't know how often they make you re-authorize but it seems pretty random to me.

you just said it was 30 days!

I dunno though, I disabled that pretty much the first time it happened.

Man, I'm having such a bad day that I can't keep things straight!

Yeah I'm pretty sure I've done this before, maybe even last month! But I won't turn it off, I think it's a great feature and I've seen too many people loose their accounts. Especially hotmail accounts.

Two Step Authentication yes? You have to re-authenticate, as you've said, every 30 days on each PC you log into. YOU KNOW THIS WHY AM I TELLING YOU?

I do, in fact, know this. I learn it the hard way just about every month I think.

Good idea. I thought I did that but I just looked in my wallet and I didn't! I have my phone so I'm going to print those now and stow them in a pocket in my wallet so I can forget all about them!
