Consider the following scenario:

  • You have the Terminal Services role installed on a computer that is running Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2 (SP2).

  • Users create many terminal server sessions to the terminal server every day.

In this scenario, you receive a blank screen after you log on to the terminal server. Additionally, the next time that you log on to the terminal server successfully, you find that the following error message was logged in the Application log at the time that you received the blank screen:

Source: Application Error

User: N/A

Computer: Computer
Description:
