Dell T7500 running Server 2003
I need to load Windows Server 2003 OS on a new Dell T7500 workstation. I don't see a driver for the Dell SAS 6/IR Integrated Workstation Controller for Server 2003 -- just XP, Vista, etc. I tried the XP driver and it blue screened. Any suggestions on how to do this?
Thanks.

This wouldn't be the next thing to try, but if nothing else works, install VMWare ESXi (free version), or install XP and then VMWare server. Then install your server on top of one of these. Not the prettiest solution, but it might fit the bill.

The driver helped resolve the issue, but we also had to change a BIOS setting - the SATA operation setting was set for AHCI and we changed it to ATA. Now it boots fine. Before it would blue screen with a code for an inaccessible boot device. System is up now.
Thanks.
