[CA1486188]

Hello were are trying to install the WIN2003 server on the ML150 G3, but when windows askes to put the raid driver on DISK A it gives an error because this server doesn't have floppy disk, how can i solve this??

Best regards

Perhaps you could use a USB floppy drive.

Otherwise integrate the MSD (Mass Storage Device) driver into your installation media, or use RIS (Remote Installation Services).

I thank you, i have a USB floppy drive from Iomega, but it seams that doesn't work, afther i press F6 in the beginning of the instalation it works ok, but when the windows instalation starts and askes again for the driver it no longer detects the floppy, acording to HP i need to buy an HP USB floppy :).
Regarding the the Mass storage device were do I put the drivers? in the prompth?

nLite would be a good place to start:

Ther are only a few external USB Floppy disk drives that are recognised by windows in text mode. See here:
