I have the Windows 2000 cd-rom in my cd player and have the cd player as boot device, but it does not go into the Windows Setup instead it reboots. The Array config shows the new HD as SCSI ID #8 and the card at #7. Is that a problem?

Go into your setup and create a driver disk. All versions of adaptec support
this. I can't remember where in the setup it is but it is there. Once you
have created the floppy when you reboot, put your Windows 2000 disk in to
install 2000. During the install it will ask you for any 3rd party raid
drivers. Press 'F6' at that time during setup. It will then prompt you for a
disk. Insert the disk you created through the adaptec create disk utility in
setup. It will read in the drivers and continue to do the 2000 install
except now when you get to the drive designations to choose a base partition
for the install you will now see your raid drive.

Mark,
Just found out I have a raid card setup. I don't have much experience with
this. Is there some sort of steps I have to follow to have the card
recognize the new HDs. Is there a way I can go without the raid card?

Robert,
Do you have the driver disk (probably a floppy) that came with the
Adaptec card? I am thinking that you will need to specify an additional
driver for the Adaptec card when you do the windows 2000 install. (Hit
F6 during the install when it tells you to.)
I seem to remember a server of mine momentary, when doing an install,
flashing to a BSOD (Blue Screen Of Death), then rebooting, if I did not
load the driver for my Adaptec card.

Sorry this is OT, but it's only one of the few times I've asked.
I need to upgrade my server running CF. I have SCSI HD's and an Adaptec
Array adapter. I installed the new HD and then one of the older larger
HD's which I will put the OS (windows 200) on it. I setup the cd-rom as
the boot and put the 2000 cd in it. However, the system boots,
recognizes the HDs, the light comes on the cd but it then reboots and
does not start the Server 2000 setup.
Did I explain enough or is there more to this than meets the eye?
Thanks as always and excuse the OT on this please.
