Netraid adapter not found

We have a HP Netserver LH3r using the integrated netraid controller. It has 6 drives setup in raid 5. The server boots up and pauses at firmware spinning when it is posting the netraid controller. After about 10 minutes it then says that there is "No Netraid Adapter found."

It will then continue its boot process until it says no operating system found.

Pressing CTRL + M at the netraid screen does not work.

The I/O board has been replaced. Also the scsi cable between the scsi connector on the i/o board to the drive cage.

Even if no drives were connected you should be able to get into Ctrl-M Express Tools.

1. Go into the F2 BIOS setup and verify that SCSI A and SCSI GB are enabled for NetRAID. If they are not, you will have a Ctrl-C option during POST for the SCSI Symbios conroller - which is what you get when NetRAID is not enabled.
If you go into the F2 and set everything back to factory defaults, SCSI A will be RAID-enabled and SCSI B will not.
If the NetRAID is enabled (it looks like it is bannering?), trying flashing the NetRAID firmware. Can you get into Ctrl-M if all the drives are pulled out?
