Exchange 2003 to 2010

I HAD an exchange 2003 sbs server.  The server is dead now.

I have saved the data from it.

I need to import thuis data into Exchange 2010.

What is the best way to get this done??

When you say that the server is dead now, has it been switched off or did it crash?

Have you already installed Exchange 2010, because then most of the settings would be imported from AD. As for mail accounts etc. you would need to have your Exchange 2003 server running to do this.

Install the exchange server 2010 freshly with the Same AD domain

Once the new database created, you can import the datas to Exchange 2010

The old harddrive.  It is in tact but will not boot.  So I have the entire c:\programs files\exchgnsrv directory
