The DP 2000 had a BIOS that was completely dependant on a system partition
on the first hard drive. Take a look at Compaq's site and see if they have
a utility to re-create that system partition. We warned that any tool they
have is probably going to wipe the rest of your hard drive...

Congratulations! I just built one for home use. It's a simple setup, I
used 2 hard drives;
* Disk0: 3Gb, strictly system. No data, storage, etc.
* Disk1: 15Gb; I've partitioned this one into three 5Gb drives. 1: Apps, 2:
Data1, 3: Data2
The server is an old Compaq Deskpro 2000. And maybe someone can answer this
question, "How do you access the BIOS on this old box?" I've tried F1 thru
F10, and nothing.
I also get a disk error (1791) that allows me to boot up, but only after
hitting any key. Once I'm logged on everything appears to fine. I'm still
in the process of checking it out though.
If this note has evoked a flashback from anyone, your response would be very
much appreciated.
Sincerely,
Jesse E. Gardner, MCP

I have finally build my first W2k Server. I have set up a totally new domain
to correct the mistakes in our current one. I have run DCPromo installed AD,
set up the DNS, set the Security Policies and so on. My question is if I go
ahead and put this on my network, it shouldn't cause any conflicts with my
existing NT boxes should it since it is a totally new domain?
