rx2600 boot error ( for Windows 2003 )

[Ryan Gu]

We have a rx2600 which running windows 2003. The recently, we bought a new one,it has better performance than old one.

The old one is running as our domain server and sql server. For it has large work to do, so we want to draw out the disks on old rx2600, and plug them into new rx2600.

I import EFI\Microsoft\WINNT50\boot0000 to EFI boot menu.

But when the new rx2600 booting, I got the following message:
"Please check your firmware settings. You may need to restore your
NVRAM settings from a backup."

How can I resolve this problem?

The old one's firmware is v2.31. And The new one is newest.

Hi Jason,

it may be that the NVRAM on your first machine was changed after windows was installed (f.e. when changing a disk to dynamic) and there is still the old NVRAM contents in the boot0000 file. To work this out, put the disk in the old server and run the nvrboot.efi tool on that server to create a fresh export file of the boot options. Then repeat the move of the disk to the new server and import the new file.

best regards

Stefan
