DR for win2k sp3 1

[mnat]

win2k sp3
arcserve2000 sp4
- DR sp4
- q028649

Can backup and restore no problems.

But when doing a Disaster Recovery I get to the point where I insert the Machine Specific disk it notifies of a reboot, the machine reboots then after a long delay in the GUI the error window "An error has occurred while initializing module. The application will terminate."

any ideas?

IS this a remote or local recovery???
check the dr.log in the drboot.tmp\system32\dr\log folder...

this should help you find the reason...

Thank you very much for pointing me to the log.

here is a section of note that i believe is responsible for the error condition...
