Hi guys,
first time posting so hope i've selected correct category!
I have done a fresh install of Server 2012 R2 on a host. The HDD was wiped clean and formatted.
It all seems good, loads up to Server 2012 R2 without any issues. Then when I have added Hyper V role through Server Manager -> Add Roles and Features, the server reboots a couple of times to complete installation, no error messages and everything seems good.
Then when installation is complete and the host tries to boot to the Server 2012 R2 it pops up a screen that there's an issue for like a second or so and reboots. It seems to be in a reboot loop all the time, gets to the same screen and starts again.
The only time you can get it to loads up is when you start it in Safe Mode.
When in safe mode I have tried to disable the Hyper V services and rebooted it. Same thing happened.
So i went to bios and disabled the Intel VT. This seemed to have helped it and server booted up ok.
But then when you enable everything back again , including VT in bios, same thing happens again and server wont start up.
I have tried to update BIOS and that didnt resolve the issue.
About the host:
CPU: Intel Xeon E5620 (x2)
Mobo: S5520HC
Any ideas what could be causing it?
Thanks for any feedback in advance! :)
