ML310 G5 Diagnostic Utility Screen at Startup

[Matthew Currie]

I have a HP310 G5, 2GB RAM, 1x 250GB SATA HDD, HP SCSI Adapter connected to HP DAT160 drive. I'm preparing to install SCO6 on it. Booted it up, went into BIOS enable the option serial port, COM2. Restarted the machine, then I get the HP Proliant screen, then I get a DIAGNOSTIC UTILITY screen, with a menu for Memory Test, CPU Test, etc.. It does not respond to the keyboard or mouse. Does anyone have any ideas? Please help!

What diagnostic tool are you using, is it the hp smart start cd, HP Insight Diagnostic? are you doing it through ILO or are physically infront of the server with the cd in the server?

I don't use any diagnostic utility. No cd or dvd is inserted on dvd drive. Simply i press buttom, system try boot (i had not still installed OS ) on the only one hard disk 250Gb and inmediately shows diagnostic utility. cdrom with smartstar doesn't boot.
