Blank and blank screen at Windows 2003 logon

when the system disk filled up. For some reason it zero out settings in the registry then you will get the following logon screen




You'll have to free up some space and perform registry edits remotely. Remember to backup your registry before performing any task like this.
 this is the edit required to get the screen back or close to standard.
