Run a more modern server and run your Server 2003 as a virtual machine. Server 2003 is dead and gone, so you are not likely to find drivers for a new machine for Server 2003.
</div>


<div>
Why do you want to restore an image is there something specific that you are looking out for. Or is the server used for some specific thing Can you please elaborate?
</div>


<div>
What exactly did you do with P2P Adjust OS? Did you let it install the Windows 2003 drivers?
</div>

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have an old windows 2003 server that I was hoping to move to new hardware. &nbsp;The new hardware is a poweredge t310, which is compatible with windows 2003.<br />
<br />
I created an image of the system using Acronis 2013. &nbsp;I was able to successfully load the image onto the RAID 10 partition on the server, but the system crashes after displaying the windows 2003 splash screen. &nbsp;I'm pretty sure it has to do with the RAID drivers.<br />
<br />
I tried using paragon to adjust P2P but was not successful.<br />
<br />
Is there another way to make this work? how can I inject my raid controller drivers so the system can 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).

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.

Storage

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.
