RDP screen goes black after successful remote login


i have windows 2008 server have been connecting once a month remotely apply os updates.  often, reboot server , uses auto-logon login , run application. 

today, rebooted server , when try connect rdp, login prompt , enter credentials, see few expected messages fly on host os (the last 1 see word welcome), screen goes black.

the apps on server running because our applications can connect them, can't logon desktop of windows server 2008.

i made no configuration changes (i never do) other apply latest windows server updates.

i prefer not drive computers location, or try coordinate time have server hosting company assist me troubleshooting; there else can do?  ideas might cause this?
