Re: IBM Server won't install



Hello tring2200,

Think about to buy an usb floppy drive and provide the needed drivers on this way. Another option is to create a installation disk with integrated drivers.

Best regards

Group,

I have tried everything I can think of.

I have an IBM x3560 7979 PSG server and I cannot get Windows 2003 or
2000 server to install on this. They both both start setup, say they
are loading the files, say setup is starting windows, then goes to the
welcome to setup screen. I then have the standard options:
ENTER=cotinue, R=Repair, F3=quit

I hit enter and it tells me "Setup did not find any hard drives
installed in your computer". I have gone to IBM's site, got updated
drivers and then stopped dead in my tracks, there is no floppy drive
on this system. I have no floppy drive on any of the laptops or
desktops I have.

I am looking for any help I can get here. I have gome through the MS
and IBM site and I am not seeing any other comments like this. Oh and
I have three of these and they all do the same thing.

Thanks for any help you can send my way,
Tim
