Running W2K Server and when any of my Backupexec Servers are rebooted it performs the POST and everything but then it just hangs with the cursor flashing. I have to do a cold reboot Any Ideas?
 
Is this happening on more than one machine? If it's just one, I'd try re-seating the SCSI controller card.
 
No this is happening with all but one of my BackupExec servers.
 
I would disable the Backupexec services to get the server come up then check the device manager for the scsi and tape devices to see if there are indication of problems with those devices or drivers. You may want to try and load\reload the latest Veritas device drivers. It sounds like the problem is with a device driver\resource conflict.
