Hi,

what version of SmartStart are you using?
I would guess you are trying to install W2K3 in German. With older versions of SmartStart there was a problem:

You could always try booting directly from the Windows CD. It has drivers for the Array controller. Then when Windows is installed you can apply the latest ProLiant Support Pack.

Regards,
Stephen

This problem will happen if the language you select in SmartStart(English) doesn't match the language of the operating system CD(German, etc.). The strings for the boot controller drivers are translated in the txtsetup.sif on the OS CD, so the correct language must be chosen in SmartStart in order for it to work.
