I bought a Proliant DL165 G5.
SmartStart is not supported with this hardware. So hard drives are not recognized and we cannot install the Operating System.

hi

install windows manually using F6(floppy) or nlite (do some research for nlite here)

either method requires a driver depending on the controller your server has
