Console is black??

[Cyberfed27]

Got an issue folks.

I have 4 VM's running on an ESXi5 host. I can right click on 2 of the VM's and select "open console" and everything is fine. I get my Windows screen and I can do what I need to do. For whatever reason the other 2 VM's do not follow the same behavior.

On the other two I right click open console and then console window opens up but its black. I do not get my windows screen.

I have verified firewall (in windows) is off and disabled on these machines.

I can remote desktop to the boxes no problem.

If I reboot them I can then right click "open console" and it loads.

Thoughts???

Are you sure they don't go into screensaver mode?

Normally if u hit enter or move with the mouse in a black console they will work/load.

Solved my own issue.

I issued a "send control alt delete" and the screen refresh.

Duh..sorry.
