Unable to install any Operating System on HPE ProLiant ML10 Gen9

[Qayyom]

Dear Experts,

I tried to install Windows Server 2012 R2, 2008 R2, Windows 7, Windows 10 on HPE ProLiant ML10 Gen9 but unfortunately failed. 

it's just after boot stuck during loading files :(

I also remove the Hard Disk and fixed in another normal Core i7 HP PC to install the OS. after installation I fixed the HD back in the Server CPU but it's also not working. I thought it'll ask to repair the windows, but not.

kindly HELP me it's very urgent for me.

Hello @Qayyom,

ML10 Gen9 not supported 2008, 2008 R2 and windows 7 ,10

Only support 2012 R2 and 2016

Step by step os installation;

1. Enter server BIOS using DEL/ESC key.
2. Choose Save and exit menu
3. Choose restore default option and use F4 to save and exit.
4. Reboot the server and enter server BIOS
5. Now select Advanced menu
6. Select SATA configuration
7. Select SATA mode selection and set to RAID mode (AHCI mode would be default)
8. Go back to Advanced menu and select CSM configuration
9. Change CSM support to enable and boot option filter to Legacy only (Boot mode set to Legacy)
10. Use F4 to save and exit.
11. Reboot the server and enter into Intel rapid storage technology setup utility using CTRL+I option when prompted.
12. The hard drives detected by the controller would be listed in the page and use (option 1) Create Raid volume

Thank you very much :)

It worked and now I already installed Windows Server 2012, but:

- my Downloaded ISO of Windows Server 2012 R2 Avalution was not bootable :( don't know why...

- I installed Windows X x64 and then from the Windows, I started the Server-Setup and choose Advanced setup

- old Windows X has been moved to Windows.old folder and now everything is working fine.
