Issues with WIN16Server and AD configuration

Hi Community,

 

I have a problem with my WIN Server.

 

I am running WIN16 on a ESX Server. Now I want to make it a domain controller. It installs everything without error and then reboots. Once rebooted a blue screen appears telling me that it will complete the group configuration. 

At this point I am in a boot loop. Rebooting --> Blue Screen --> Rebooting

 

I tried to set back the server and start from the scratch, but still the same problem. What's my fault? Can anyone help me please. What additional information do you need.

 

It's the first time I am doing this. I am new to MS Server.
