| | Where Is Activity Log? Came down to the machine this morning (running SP1 Basic), and found that it had rebooted overnight. Is there a process log stored somewhere that can tell me why, or what was running at the time? Thanks. |

| | Re: Where Is Activity Log? Hi, Event Viewer, just type it into the start/search line and hit <enter>. Check the system and application logs, and possibly the security log as well.

| | Re: Where Is Activity Log? Definitely have Auto Update turned off. I do see a System Errorlog entry 'unable to initialize the security package Kerberos for server side'. I have no idea what this is. |
