I have a new 1600R server, test installed NT4 ok, test installed W2k server ok. When installing on site as comms server with W2k server (terminal server) I keep getting unplugged from network error, this goes out immiediatly or if load on ie pinging does not occur. Further problem is server locking up requiring restart. I did not use smart start but used W2k and all native drivers.
 
Use Compaq(HP) SmartStart to update the drivers

OR

Download the drivers for the hardware;


If you are still seeing the symptoms ensure that AUTO settings are'nt used on the Ethernet Switches OR the NIC's

Eg fix the cards to 100/FULL likewise with the switch


also ensure that the switch ports are configured for "spanningtree portfast"
