NT Setup Woes

[bp1169]

We Had an NT Server that we decided to update with some IIS patches, upon installing the rollup package we blue screened, spent hours trying to solve that (to no avail). We decided to boot off the nt server cd and install the "upgrade" over the previous version in hopes of solving our BSOD's, no such luck. After the first reboot (after the text install finishes) and the GUI install should start, but before it even starts the server reboots itself, and continues on like this forever. I have searced Technet and all the normal Microsoft resources with little luck. Hopefully someone has some ideas that may help me out, thanks in advance.

Why don't you start by doing a totally new install to a new directory; as a dual boot. Reboot to this new OS. Can't tell you where to go from here as I have no idea what you have on this server. -- Devil Dog --

or maybe try doing a "repair" install.

or recover from the backup you made before the patches

bp1169,

I assume you have already read this article, is this a compaq server?
