Do you have any overclock enabled including pbo if on amd? Disable xmp/expo in bios. If it still doesn't help remove or disable all drives that isn't boot drive. If still no luck try with one ram stick at a time in slot A2.

i don’t have any overclocked enabled. it finally got to diagnosing my pc and doing the repairs but it’s still stuck at the loading windows screen. i uninstall the update earlier and my computer worked fine but it reinstalled it and have to go through this process again but now it’s giving more problems.

Well you have to try to repair it again but this time pause updates otherwise it'll just break it again. 

The direction tells you... the direction.

If you are an enterprise version of windows, I think you are just caught in this: https://www.tomshardware.com/software/windows/microsofts-april-patch-puts-windows-domain-controllers-into-reboot-loops

 

My advice to you would be to uninstall the update, pause updates for a few months and try again to see if there are any issues.
