Start up loop

Hi…

When starting my iMac this morning, I received the following message: “Your computer restarted because of a problem. Press any key or wait a few seconds to continue starting up”. Then, it just keeps looping through the process and coming back to the same message.

I shut down correctly last night.


advice?

Thanks!

iMac 21.5″, macOS 13.2

Try starting up in Safe Mode.

If you have a newer Magic Keyboard, then you may need to plug it into the iMac. If you have an older wireless keyboard, then you may need to use a USB keyboard.
