I have this right issue, I'm running on HP DL380 G5 Windows Server 2003 R2, after create new RAID the OS didn't start again, I removed all that could be installed with the new storage but didn't work, I update all the firmware and verify the RAID configuration and seems to be OK, after use chkdsk c: /p /r system says that all is OK but after the reboot OS didn´t start, any suggestion ??

Number 4 did it for me. Something in the most recent batch of Windows Updates conflicted with an outdated FC driver. I disconnected the SAN (thankfully we boot to local disk) and updated the drivers and all is well. Thank you for this very helpful post, it saved me lots of troubleshooting.

I: We recovered the 3rd system by restoring the SOFTWARE hive from the previous good backup.

Hello Jaspreet,

This issue appears to occur only on HP Proliant servers. We had 3 cases this month. Disconncting the FC on 2 of them and resetting the FC switch ports appears to have fixed the issue on those 2. Fighting the 3rd one right now. There is just no common thread here - seems to happen out of the blue.

Hi, thank you for the post.

iam currently with the same issue on a HP Windows 2003 BOX.

Safe Mode with Networking is fine.

i tried a repair of the whole OS by NOT choosing the "R" Option during CDBoot - no usccess

Today i deleted the Raid1 and reinitialized it again - no success.

Now we have a clean install from scratch. We tried all the hints like chkdsk ...and remove one of mirror disk to start a remirroring, removing the latest MS patches - uninstalling most of the drivers from hardware-management and reboot - remove the physical FC HBA. We failed

So we will try a 2weeks old full recovery from Backup ..hopefully it works. Thank you

Hello Remick,

Were you able to boot into safe mode ?

How is your tape drive connected?

Hi,

thanks for the tip but i had same issue with HP server (Windows server 2003) and it did not have any external devices conencted, only tape drive. Thing is that after hanging all night on the splash screen it booted to the OS in the morning (about 9 hours). This happened twice randomly.
