<div>
i tried booting up the cd and do a Repair but it cant find raid controller to load the drives. i can;t find the raid driver to load. I also have tried last known good and safe mode but still getting same.
</div>


<div>
how to you EXPAND command to replace file?<br />
<br />
thanks
</div>


<div>
i guess i cant use expand until i can get the raid driver to load so it can sees the drive. i have to try to trach down the raid driver and get a floppy drive because there is no floppy drive on the server.
</div>


<div>
Take a look at nLite - you can be able to insert your drivers on an image, then burn it to disk.<br />

</div>


<div>
it looks like nlite is not for windows 2003 server? do ihave to take the drive out to another computer to update driver, if its the case than not possible.
</div>


<div>
You can install nLite in XP - it will be able to prepare a disk for windows 2003 server.<br />

Expand will be the key in replacing those corrupted files.
</div>


<div>
I have never used expand before but how can you replace file if you can't view folder, getting access denied.

windows 2003 WONT BOOT UP

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
