What version and/or size is your cpqntac.sys file (\winnt\system32\drivers\)
If the file is not at least version 1.00.01.0017 (9/22/99) then you need to update it. Normally, you could just pull the NIC and reboot without any problems, but with a embedded NIC you're going to have to disable it in the BIOS. You should then be able to boot fine. Get the latest version from Compaq's site, and enable the card. The server should boot fine.

I'm running N NT4.0 sp6a. I upgraded from imail 6.06 to 7.05 hf 2. I'm running on a Compaq proliant 1850 R server. When I restarted the system, I got a blue screen. I had a couple of responses from you guys, and have replaced the ram, reinstalled ver 6.06, rebooted - same thing. Then I reinstalled 7.05 (no hotfix) - I'm still having the same problem. I can still boot to the HAL recovery mode and everything seems to be working fine. My network adapter card is an compaq netelligent 10/100 embedded. If anyone has any other ideas, I'd appreciate it.
