E-60 & SBS 2003

[Jake Eyre]

Hi there,

I am planing to install SBS 2K3 on an E-60 w/ 512Mb RAM, no RAID config and stock config. It's currently running Windows 2K Server and Exchange 5.5 with no problems. Can anyone see any potential driver/BIOS issues with this or point me to any new BIOS for the E-60. Most links I have tried from these pages don't seem to work.

thanks in advance

shouldnt be a problem i dont think, there is some support from hp with win2003 server on the main site.
The latest bios i can see is 4.06.26 PN downloadable from here.

try it and see I suppose, you could always stick another disc in it to try first before you lose your existing os.

Thanks for the reply, Andrew.
The server has a NetRaid 1si. I have checked the MS HCL and it says "unsupported". This doesn't necessarily mean it won't run, does it?

Do you think 2K3 ships with drivers for the 1si? because the last drivers on the site are for 2K server

thanks and regards
