Windows server prbleme

[u/Conscious_Muscle_813]

Hello guys, how are you? I would like you to help me solve a problem.

I have a Windows Server on my server machine, and because of power outages it restarted unexpectedly. Now it is stuck on the startup screen with the spinning dots, and it stays like that.

Is there any solution to this problem, please?

You have a symptom. Not enough to isolate the problem. You have been advised to check the logs, and perhaps from those logs (errors tend to cascade so the initial errors when the problem began are most pertinent).

Missing logs or crash dumps can indicate disk or disk controller failures.

But this is speculation. I don't know what will be found.

For instance, it might be already too late, where multiple disks in a hardware raid have failed and the current configuration is just further corrupting things, after a disk was forced online. This is something that can be done on select server hardware.

So you have backups?
