    Blue screen setting up SBS 2003 release 2

    I am working on a new server and I have asked for the trial version of the SBS 2003 and booted from the CD. The setup seems to be starting fine, but when it finished loading the drivers, it told me that it was starting Windows and then I got a Blue Screen. I have tried many times and getting the same error. After that I tried to setup Vista on the same machine, and the setup started fine, Windows started and I went through a few screens, including formatting the hard drive, so I know that this is not a CD issue, or memory issue. Can anyone tell me how do I solve this issue? Thanks.

    Could you please let us know what was the error message that you were getting in the blue screen?

    It was telling something about checking to see if I have installed new hard drive, hard drive controllers, or so and then to disconnect those. I will post the exact error later when I get that blue screen again.

    You can try to check for some viruses in your machine. And then remove any newly installed hard drives and hard drive controlleds. Also go to the hard drive manufacturer to ensure that it is properly configured and terminated. You can also run ChkDsk/F to see if there is any hard drive corruption, and then restart your machine. Also read some suggestions given on this link - http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...e-40eb07a98d54

    I found the solution for this. The reason is there is something to do with drive in CMOS. I have the same problem and I switched the drive setting in CMOS from AHCI to ATA and it worked fine. By the way..I am looking for SBS 2003 trial also, but I could not get it. Can you send me a copy of it? I have Windows server 2003 standard. and also download SBS2008..but would like to use SBS 2003.
    Thanks
