At least now it boots without having the DVD correct?
Maybe now go thru the BIOS and check for everything being good and right.

Nope. The several minute blank screen before booting Vista is with the
install DVD in the drive. Without it the machine just hangs on a black
screen after the DMI update. Cleared the CMOS, reset the BIOS to default
and tweaked, and ran fix boot files from Vista install DVD.
But it's the same
Thank you Ben,
This is a very tough topic for me. I get the per seat (aka per person)
choice. Since I do not have 1 server, my book steers me away from this.
Plus, if I select the per server option, I get one future no-cost (reload)
option to change if necessary.
On my lan there are only 2

I wouldn't worry about it too much either way. For a small home server
with less than 5 clients you'll be fine either way you do it.
The number of accounts you have doesn't affect the number of CAL's
you'll need. I only like per-seat because you only need one CAL per PC,
versus one
Thank you Ben,
I accept your take on this. I can report that my server is back alive and
now has its' mouse and kbd active again (main project!)!!! :)
There will be NO more file culling on this machine! EVER!
Thank you John, Fred, and Chris. Am back alive, but with a machine that did
not
IMS is really lacking IMHO as I am having VPU Recover issues with my ATI video card
that I did not get before going RAID. Will have to find time to revert back to ACHI
at some point see if the problem goes away. Pulling out hair over the video card
issues with people pointing fingers at my PSU
It's pretty much brand new only used it for a couple weeks before deciding
to dump the money into my HTPC instead. Main difference there was being
able to use a BluRay. Thing works great, retails for $70 but I'll take $100
