Guest MSExchangeStudent Posted August 14, 2007 Posted August 14, 2007 Hi all I have format my server. Win2003 Server is now loaded on it. Everytime if i leave the server without working on it for approx an hour it rebootes by itself and stop at the option where it says : System currently configured for Windows 2000 Press F1 to continue Press F9 for ROM based setup utility Press F10 for System Partition utilities Press F12 for PXE Boot Why is it doing this and how can i solve it?
Guest Mike Lowery Posted August 14, 2007 Posted August 14, 2007 Re: Server restart Sounds like the BSOD. Check your Event Logs for clues. It could be a hardware (bad RAM?) or driver issue.

Guest drkc Posted August 14, 2007 Posted August 14, 2007 RE: Server restart Black screen? Did you pull the CD out of the drive? (Just checking) Sounds like a BIOS issue? Is the hard drive booting? Do you have all the drivers loaded that need to be for disk adapterss? Still sounds like a BIOS issue to me... "MSExchangeStudent" wrote: > Hi all > > I have format my server.

Guest MSExchangeStudent Posted August 15, 2007 Posted August 15, 2007 Re: Server restart Hi guys This is what happened now. this morning when i got to the pc, it did reboot again and was on the screen that i described in the post where you press F1, F9, etc. I then did press F1 to continue. It went to the screen where it says " Booting from C-Drive" and stayed there for some time. I hit enter and it seems to move on then. Now it is at the screen where it says : "SCSI BIOS not installed! Slot 0 Compaq Smart Array 5i Controller (32MB, v1.80) 1 Logical Drive Tape drive(s) Detected: SCSI Port 1: SCSI ID 3 1786-Slot 0 Drive Array Recovery Needed The following SCSI drive(s) need Automatic Data Recovery (rebuild) SCSI Port 2: SCSI ID 1 Select F1 to continue with recovery of data to drive(s) Select F2 to continue without recovery of data to drive(s) (RESUME = "F1" OR "F2" Key) This is excatly what is on my screen now. Does this help in showing you guys perhaps what is faulty. Obviously i couldn't get into the event viewer yet to post results. I'll press F1 and see what happens "drkc" <drkc@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:BCDFEC4F-39F5-4FFD-AB37-43A8C999E34C@microsoft.com... > Black screen?

Guest Brad Rutkowski Posted August 15, 2007 Posted August 15, 2007 RE: Server restart Is it every hour on the hour? If so it sounds like the license might have fallen out of its grace period. Have you checked to see if the OS is licensed? -- This post is provided as-is and is my opinion, check the facts before doing anything in production. http://blogs.technet.com/brad_rutkowski "MSExchangeStudent" wrote: > Hi all > > I have format my server.
