Infinite loop logging on to Windows 2003 EE SP1 after resizing with Partition Expert

I've a multi-boot system with Windows XP Pro SP2 on primary partition, and
Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edition SP1 on a logical partition. After
resizing two partitions using Acronis Partition Expert 2003 Personal
Edition, I've a curious error: when logon window (CTRL+ALT+DEL) of Windows
2003 appears, I sign-on, but instead to be logged on, a "Loggin off" windows
(just as when Windows 2003 is shutdown) appears. Then, login windows appears again, I sign-on, "Loading personal settings" appears, then appears "Saving
personal settings", and I'm prompted with login window again!
At this time, as you can imagine, I come in a infinite loop: when I give my
credentials, after "Loading personal settings" - "Saving personal settings"
windows, login window prompts, I enter my credentials, "Loading personal
settings" - "Saving personal settings" windows appears, and so on.
Does anyone know how to solve problem?
Hope to hear from you soon.

Re: Infinite loop logging on to Windows 2003 EE SP1 after resizing with Partition Exp

If you don't mind, I would like to echo that I am having the same problem with Acronis MigrateEasy. I just purchased AME to gradually retire a Dell Dimension with a 320 GB RAID 1 array. I wanted to use the two RAID drives elsewhere, and so I purchased AME to migrate the 55 GB Windows XP pro SP2 partition on the RAID to a single 80 GB drive. The migration went without errors copying the small Dell diagnostic partition and the Windows NTFS partition. After changing the BIOS to boot the single drive, the same endless login loop occured. Since it sounds to be the same problem that this poster is having after repartitioning his disk. This must be a related problem in both of these products. If you don't mind Kirill, I am going to follow the same instructions and submit a report to technical support as well. Thanks.
