errors: (at start up) 1777-Slot 4 Drive Array - Proliant Storage System Problem detected SCSI Port 2: Wide SCSI Transfer failed - check SCSI cable
and when i reinstalled windows 2000 i get a disk error press any key to restart
i can't remember but there was some errors in the drive array config. but i dont have my smartstart cds and wont have them till monday so ill post those errors monday

i dont know what storage box is connected to my server all it says on it is Compaq Proliant

what do you mean by which controller? the raid card? or that it supports fast wide SCSI-2?

hi,

from the information you have given , it seems a connectivity problem , either due to SCSI cables, or the storage cage connections. as posted by prashant, you please post the datail about which SCSI /RAID controller you have in your server.

regards,
