Hi Kerry,
No did not do actually need to do an inplace upgrade, once update.sys had
been replaced with the older version we had a bootable windows partition so
restored over the top of the existing.
Reinstalling from scratch would leave them offline for an awfully long time,
remembering that there is then also service pack 1 to install and all the
rest that came with that, not to mention all the other software,
configuration changes and various fixes which have since been applied.

After replacing the motherboard did you do a repair install?

Since restoring our server after a no-boot total failure, system state
backup fails with the following errors:
Error: Could not access portions of directory System State\COM+ Class
Registration Database.
You may not have permission to open the file, or the directory may be
missing or damaged.
Please contact the owner or administrator.
Error: Could not access portions of directory System State\Registry.

We also see the following event log errors

Anyone suggest how to solve this, before the crash our backup worked
fine?

In case it is relevant - a brief explanation of the server crash:
Intermittant lockups and various disk problems with the hardware
mirrored drives.
Complete failure of RAID controller - can still boot from source disk
but not as part of RAID array.
Replaced mothboard with onboard RAID controller.
Server worked fine for about five days.
Server BSOD, pulled power now will not boot, seriously dead server.
Safe mode and all other recovery modes failed.
Safe mode locks-up after acpitabl.dat
Reset BIOS to factory defaults.
Recovery console now boots.
Copy in older update.sys, this now allows boot but with large amount
of errors.
Recover server, partly from tape, partly by fixing various individual
problems.
