Hi i am upgrading my raid 5 4.5 sbs installation to a set of bigger hard drives i have a hp lc2000 server. i recently brought a disaster recovery software called ultrabac that does similiar to what ghost does in it's desaster recovery backups i made an image desaster recovery backup to a ide hard drive then restored it to the new raid using the same hard drive partition as before even though the raid drive is larger i can later use partition magic to make it any size i want, the problem is at boot up i see the system sbs 4.5 choices i choose normal startup it shows the blue screen with the processor and service pack info at the point that it starts writting the points on the screen the server reboots

any ideas are greatly aprecciated

thanks

You are experiencing a re-ocurring Blue Screen of Death. Can you boot in safe mode? Check the event log...

i did not have a chance to boot into safe mode because i was running out of time and just put in the raid back as it was with the old drives, and it's not the blue screen of death it's just the blue screen that nt loads at startup with the processor and service pack information at that point the system reboots


thanks

I mean it is rebooting due to a blue screen...basically the OS is crashing during boot up.
