Black screen on Remote Desktop Connection or RDC

Scenario: When you try to connect to a remote desktop using mstsc command, after successfully logging in the screen appears black. It seems the remote server has stopped responding.
However the system is processing you request in the background.

Solution
1. Check if too many users connected to the server.If so , request them to free the session.
2. Check if too many processes, services or tasks are running.

To do so, the trick is to press 'Ctrl + Alt + End' key. This will open task manager. Here you can check both, number of users logged on in the Users Tab and running processes in Processes tab.
