NT will not boot
smart 2dh, 5 9.1GB U2 hard drives with 2 logical drives.
The operating system is on mirrored drive C. We recently moved the
server from one place to another, turned back on, the server wouldn't boot. The post tests passed, the drives were picked up. The server sits there with a flashing cursor in the top left cursor - black screen. the carepaq guy changed the controller, drive cage etc. to no availe. Is there any way round this apart from a system erase and a OS reinstall
Thanks

Re: NT will not boot
I have managed to rule out all the hardware as the possible cause of the flashing cursor. It has turned out to be a corrupt Master Boot Record on the boot drive.
Unless you make a copy of this using DISKPROBE off the NT resource kit, you need to rebuild the MBR by reinstalling NT over the top of your existing build.
Hope this helps

Beware, this will completely strip your drive. Be sure to back everything up first.
