I have created a new VM (Server 2012 R2) and just got everything up and running to the point I could install windows updates. Everything was going great yesterday and I started installing the 200 or so updates that needed to be installed. After they installed the server needed to reboot so I let it. I then called it a night and left it to reboot and walked away.
Today, I came back to a VM that was stuck at the Windows loading screen (little blue windows logo centered on black). No matter what I try, I can not get this VM to start up now! When trying to start up it gets hung at Starting (10%) for a short while then finally comes online only to get stuck yet again at the startup screen (previously explained).
I have check my logs and the only thing I can see is an error message deemed "not a big deal" by Microsoft.
Applications and Service Logs->Microsoft->Windows->Hyper-V-Integration->Admin
'SERVERNAME': The Data Exchange integration service is either not enabled, not running or not initialized. (Virtual machine ID 2C43A8A5-B968-4F0E-8429-76A108ECFDC0)
I can't see any other errors. Any idea how I can get this VM to boot back up?
