This fixed that problem for me:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal
Server\VIDEO]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal
Server\VIDEO\rdpdd]
"VgaCompatible"="\\Device\\Video0"
"\\Device\\Video0"="\\REGISTRY\\Machine\\System\\CurrentControlSet\\Services
\\RDPDD\\Device0"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal
Server\VIDEO\vdtw30]
"\\Device\\Video0"="\\REGISTRY\\Machine\\System\\CurrentControlSet\\Services
\\vdtw30\\Device0"
"VgaCompatible"="\\Device\\Video0"

Good Luck,

Thanks for posting this Graham. I assume you just
replaced the curent registry entries with these, correct?

Did you try removing the RDP-TCP connection and then
recreating it?

Yes sir.
Replacing these keys saved my server. I was surprised how easy it was to
kill/fix a working system just by registry tweaks.

This problem happened about 6 months ago while I was upgrading a server to
new h/w.
I imaged the win2k citrix server (with PowerQuest Server Image) then
restored the image on totally new server. It wouldn't boot properly at this
point (different h/w)
Reinstalled Win2k over top (like a repair) and the system appeared to work
ok except the rdp listener was in a down state. Tried lots of things to
get it to come back - but it would not. Found this reg setting from digging
through the newsgroups - it fixed my problem!
The server is still going strong 6 months later.
I hung onto this reg setting because this fix was hard to find and worked
like a charm (in my case).
