Funky Win2k Login Problem

Here's an interesting problem, anyone seen this before? Upgraded a Windows 98 box to 2k pro, 98 box logged into a NT 4 server and had drives mapped to it. I upgraded the machine away from the office so wasn't on that network.

Upgraded a Windows 98 box to 2k pro, 98 box logged into a NT 4 server and had drives mapped to it. I upgraded the machine away from the office so wasn't on that network.
 
So here's the problem: machine boots fine and comes up to a login prompt. I log in as either the user or Administrator and it looks like Windows is coming up, "preparing you setting," plays the Windows startup sound and then the Windows shutdown sound plays and it goes back to a log dialog.
 
Any ideas how I get around this?
 
Thanks in advance!
