Hello Desmond,
Any time a MS service patches are applied you need to run Smart Start support pack BEFORE you reboot the server. In your case when you applied NT service pack you probably did not know and rebooted without applying Smart Start support pack. The drivers for your array have been overwritten resulting in the stop 7B error. You have two choices: Either fix the failing driver by accessing the boot drive or do the parallel installation of NT.
