I had reinstalled the Domain and DNS went to reboot after the DNS installation and it will not take my administration password.

Hi, What error message are you getting? How many domain controllers are in the domain? Have you checked the administrator account status or reset the password?

Hi David, You don't have to install SP1, I just confimed with you as sometimes the SP1 may lead to a blue screen. As you are able to log in safe mode, so please try to perform a clean boot and check if it works.
