ML570 Freezes at Windows 2003 Install
I used the system erase utility from the Smartstart 5.50 CD and cleared the system, then proceeded to configure the array and re-install Windows 2003. The install hangs at the blue setup screens of Windows 2003. There is a post error as the F1 prompt appears, but I can't seem to isolate the hardware issue.
Anyone have any ideas,
Thanks in advance,
Kyle

Try windows 2003 installation without SmartStart CD (Press "F6" when Windows installation prompts if you want to install a thrid party device and load the array controller (if you have) driver from the floppy disk)

Re: ML570 Freezes at Windows 2003 Install
I'm having the same problem. When trying to install Windows 2000/2003 server on a ML570 G1 it hangs during the install.
I'm using SS 5.50 and have tried a manual and assisted.
I've tried the F6 option and this driver http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/22970.html
but it still hangs.
I'm running the latest firmware (P20).
Any ideas?
Cheers

Re: ML570 Freezes at Windows 2003 Install
I have successfully installed Windows 2003 server on a Proliant ML 570 G1 server. I initially also hanged on the install screen as well, right before the EULA. I was using the latest BIOS version, and also all other firmwares in the systerm were up to date thanks to the firmware CD. The way I fixed it was to run the system erase utility, then shutdown the server, and moved all my hard drives from drive cage B to drive cage A staring at SCSI ID 0 till 5 in my case. (Using 5 x 18.2 Ultra2 SCSI drives). Then killed the logical drive and recreated. Now I was able to bootup using the Windows 2003 server CD and install the OS. Hopefully this info helps.

Re: ML570 Freezes at Windows 2003 Install
I'm having the exacte same problem, but with a brand new ML-350 G4. Freezes at the Windows 2003 server enterprise or the standard install. CD worked well prior on an ML-370
I've tried the Smartstart 7.40 CD or a manual (with the SmartArray driver on FDD)CD WIndows 2003 server install, same result. But, succesfully installed W2K with SS or manual (with the SmartArray driver on FDD)and works great.
Downloaded and applied the firmware maintenance CD and the only upgrade was the SmartArray firmware. Did a system erase
Hardware setup:
2GB ram
2 X 36GB SCSI HOTPLUG RAID 0+1(in the Optional housing)
4 X 146GB SCSI HOTPLUG RAID 5
1 X SmartArray 6204 128MB
1 X Remote lights-out II card
Am I overseeing something?
Thanks

Re: ML570 Freezes at Windows 2003 Install
I am getting the same problem with a ML570 G1 generation.
Running windows 2000 and SP4.
Is posible that the problem be the system i/o motherboard.
thank you .

Re: ML570 Freezes at Windows 2003 Install
I've tried several ways and the best way which has caused me no problems is :-
1. use an assisted install on SS 5.5 and select windows 2000
2. when complete remove the compaq agents etc
3. upgrade to windows 2003
4. apply latest support pak
Not had a problem doing it this way.

Re: ML570 Freezes at Windows 2003 Install
I have done my upgrade the same way as Mick.
There was no problems.
Ensure the firmware is up to date.PSP 7.30
and later.
SCU should be 2.58a.
