Can't boot on Proliant 530 G2

Hello
I have copied Win2000 Server files on a RAID 1 partition and when rebooting, I had just one message :Attempting to boot on C: drive
If I try to boot on a floppy disk, I can read the C: drive with its boot.ini, ntldr,... files.
The smart array Card 5300 is declared as first boot controller.
Does anyone could help me ??

Does this only happen on warm reboots? Do you get some kind of a blue screen?

There was a problem with the DL380 G3's that if you had the card in a certain slot, Win2K would hang when doing a reboot. A firmware upgrade for the server was released and that solved it. I haven't heard of this problem on any other servers.

No, this issue appeared just after the first reboot when all W2K files have been copied on C: drive.

I've never seen that problem. Have you tried running a system erase and starting over?
