First of all where is the switch 3 you refer to....I have no documents.<BR />When you say boot up the server with the drives out.....should I insert one at a time.....or insert one and reboot...???? Any and all help would be appreciated Wed, 11 Sep 2002 16:10:07 GMT Tom Hamer 2002-09-11T16:10:07Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/netservers/lhpro/m-p/2804441#M3331 Greg, <BR /> Thanks for your suggestions.

Its a bank of 8 switches.<BR /><BR />As for the hard drives I would first boot the server with no hard drives installed and see if you get any error messages. <BR /><BR />I would also inventory your PCI/EISA cards in the server and post their part numbers and remove any NON-HP cards until you get the server operational.<BR /><BR />Ciao,<BR />Greg Wed, 11 Sep 2002 16:15:18 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/netservers/lhpro/m-p/2804442#M3332 Greg Carlson 2002-09-11T16:15:18Z
