not sure if it was here i saw some post related to it, but couldnt find anything by searchnig :detective: :dontgetit:
i have an old server dual CPU in my basement with 256M RAM and want ot try it out with .NET2k3 srv :kicking:
but it cant boot from IDE CD :kwasny: and i dont have a SCSI one :rolleyes1:
worst part is that it has a ACER M9N board and there are no more BIOS updates for it :rip: :bangin: :crybaby:
can't it be installed it from floppy boot disk?? :wink3:
i recently read something about it but i cant remember... :wallbash: :wacko:

thx guys :sailor:

have you tried to boot from a floppy disk with cdrom support and go to the cdrom drive where win2k3 server is inserted and go inside the 1386 folder then run winnt.exe

to speed up copy try to load smartdrv.exe

nevermind :horse: i should have gonne to sleep instead of posting this :lamo: :fish:
thx anyway ecperez :wink3:

cheers :drunk:

I did post this issue (encountered on old IDE machine!)
