Problem installing Windows 2K Server on SC 1435
So I had to buy a PE SC1435 for work and as we've done in the past the server was ordered with Server 2K3 with the intention of installing 2K SP4. In the past the Dell setup discs have given the option for W2K and W2K3, however this system only comes with the W2K3 option.
No big deal I thought, d/l the drivers for the SAS RAID card and I should be able to use a floppy disk when W2K Server setup asks for newer SCSI drivers. I did this using a USB floppy drive. The problem comes in when W2K Server goes to begin copying files to the HDD after formatting the drive. What happens is the system asks for the SCSI drivers from the floppy, but for some reason I can no longer get the system to recognize the USB floppy! This means exiting the install and it never completes.
What I need to know is an easy way to install these drivers properly so that I can finally get W2K server up and running.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
