Server 2016 restarts before login screen...

Copper Contributor

We let our Server 2016 Standard do a restart for updates last week and had to leave the office. When I tried to login from home later I was unable to. Found the server rebooting repeatedly. Starts up, gets all the way to the login screen or just before it then just restarts. I can boot into safe mode, but then I can't seem to find what is causing the problems. Any ideas? I can't really find a good step by step troubleshooting guide anywhere, but am willing to do almost anything to at least get the machine up and running again! :) Thanks in advance!

I'd check the system event log for clues. If you think its the update (unlikely) you can uninstall it for a test.
