3750 Boot Issue

[itsupport]

Hi all,

I have a 3750 switch which is doing something odd. When booted it loads the IOS and appears to pass the POST. Right at the end of the boot process where it would normally come up with the login prompt it seems to just hang and I get a flashing cursor. The unit is otherwise unresponsive to key strokes. Anyone suggestions? TIA!

Two suggestions:

1. Are you absolutely sure 'no exec' is NOT on the 'line con 0' config on the switch?

2. Follow the config or password recovery steps to bypass the config and see if the boot completes.

These switches have a limited lifetime warranty so you should be able to open a TAC case using the switch serial number to help get this resolved...
