Hi,

I'm tring to setup a brand new HPE ML30 with Windows Server 2025 Essentials.

After doing the procedure with Rapid Deploy ther server boot to a blue screeen (not BSD) with mouse pointer only.

After a while, half an hour or more, it reboots to the same screen...

Any help?

Hi @PonteFinal,
Can u please share more imformation to help us understand better

What generation of HPE ML30 server is being used?

Have all the latest cumulative updates and patches for Windows Server 2025 Essentials been applied (e.g., KB5046617 or later)? Are any special drivers or firmware updates integrated in the deployment image?

Are there any error messages, stop codes, or logs visible before or after the blue screen appearance?

Hi @Supreeth_B ,

Many thanks for your reply.

After a few reboots the server begun to start as expected.

I've tried to delete the post but didn't find how to do it...
