newbie question! Qlogic iSCSI HBA

Hey guys, I have a Qlogic dual port iSCSI HBA install on Win2003 64-bit. I have the drivers installed, SANSurfer, Navi server manager to register the host with storage, and MS initiator. Is all of that needed? I ask because as soon as I install PP the server hangs at reboot on the windows splash screen. It almost seems like the MS initiator is stomping on the powerpath install. I have tried to remove PowerPath and disconnect the HBAs and install it again. As soon as I plug in the HBAs and reboot the server hangs at the splash screen. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

    when installing iSCSI initiator ..you need to select just the "initiator service" and MPIO

    Yeah I tried SP1 as well and ran the PP uninstall command line utility in between. Do I need the MS initiator installed with the Qlogic card? I see conenction info in the MS initiator if I open it up and I didn't put it there.
