I have changed the domain name for the server and restarted it as required.
When shutting down, there was an error message but didn't take note of it and
just clicked ok and shut down the machine. When restarting it came to Windows
screen and then restarted and continuously did that.

And I use a 650V UPS on it. Would it be a power problem, hardware failure or
a operating system failure.

Please help me solve this problem.

You can't change the internal domain name on an SBS. Is that what you did?

Since, I have changed the internal domain name, windows sbs 2003 is not able
to boot up. Thus, I am trying to reinstall a new windows sbs 2003 server os.
But it keeps booting into windows and restarting even if i select it to boot
from dvd drive.

please help.

No backups? Your best and quickest solution it to restore from backup.

Guess I don't need to tell you, but for the possible benefit of others....
please, please have a known good backup *before* makeing any changes to your
server(s).

In your case, there should be a setting in the computers BIOS/setup screens
- F1/ F10/del key on cold start - that allows you to select the boot device.
There may also be a F key, such as F12, announced on the screen from a cold
boot that will allow you to select a bootable device.
