installing SBS 2003 on power edge
Originally ordered a poweredge server from Dell with 2003 server on it but have since decided we need SBS 2003 instead...
We've formatted the drive but on intall it gets 'stuck' at 13% remaining 'registering components'. I've looked around on teh web for soluttions which normally say 'leave it a couple of hours...'. well 14 hours later its still sitting there... any ideas?
Thanks.

Are you using any sort of RAID configuration and if so, did you install the drivers in the begninning when the setup asked for them?
What are the specs on the server?

its a poweredge 2600 with a RAID 5 configuration.
I dont think its a raid driver issue as i've not needed to install drivers for them before when I've put sbs 2003 or Windows Server 2003 on the same controllers. This machine did have server 2003 on it but we needed exchange. Given the exorbitant cost it worked out cheaper to retrograde to sbs2003

I have oerosnally never used a RAID arry but have always noticed that WARNING in the beginning. I have installed my copy about a dozen times or so playing with it before I finally setlled on a setup then ghosted the installed image.
Are there any USB devices connected?
