In place upgrade from Win2k to Win2003

In place upgrade from Win2k to Win2003

On two separate Compaq Win2k servers, we've attempted to do an in-place upgrade from Win2k to Win2003 and both times, we've run into the same problem. It stops with the following message: "Please insert the Compact Disk labeled 'HP Network Teaming Disk' into your CD-Rom drive and then click OK". Since we don't have this CD and am unable to find it on-line, we decided to locate the individual files it needed. We copied the various files from a separate Win2k server and the process took forever. We stopped after about 10-12 files were located.
My questions are as follows...
Where do we find the "HP Network Teaming Disk"?
If we find it, is this all it needs to complete the in-place upgrade?
Is there a white paper on this anywhere??

Please advise.

Thanks!!

As for a white paper, search for your system at: http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/support.html
There "should" be update information of what is needed to get to 2003.

A white paper titled "Upgrading to Microsoft Windows Server 2003 on ProLiant servers" along with other white papers for this OS are available at this URL:
