Windows Server 2008 boot hangs, no services started
Have you recently installed a new HTTPS SSL Certificate and since then, your Server does not boot any more? Only safe mode is working, but many services do not start?
The Cause is a deadlock beween some services, see this HTTP-CryptSvc-LSASS-Deadlock blog post for information about how to solve this without having to reinstall your system.
The behaviour is often seen many times after installing the certificate, as you normally not do a reboot after doing this. Once you install Windows updates, the servers does not come up again, the services do not start and you blame the updates for this. Having spent about 4 days now, we eliminated the problem using the workaround posted above:
from KB 2379016:
In the registry under [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP], add a key DependOnService (type REG_SZ_MULTI - multipart string) with the value CRYPTSVC
german seach tags to help them, too:
Dienste starten nach Windowsupdate von Server 2008 nicht mehr,
Nach Installation von SSL-Zertifikat bootet der Rechner nicht mehr
