I have an HP DL380 G6 that has been running Windows Server 2003 (32 bit)
I would like to install Server 2008 R2, and have tried several times, but I keep receiving the message stated in the title. I have performed several updates to the hardware/firmware (including the BIOS which is 7/2013)
Am I overlooking something? (obviously I am, but what? )
I would be happy to provide any additional information that is pertinent to helping me resolve my problem.
Thanks in advance!
*Additionally, I have removed all of the memory except for 2 sticks of RAM. (4GB each) I have also removed the PCI card, and the 512MB cache and battery for the P410i. I have 8 drives (SATA) configured in RAID 1+0. I haven't seen an ACPI setting in the BIOS, so I assume that it is in the actual update. I also assume that Server 2008 R2 reads the HAL and perhaps that is where the issue is stemming from? The BIOS I have "should" be ACPI compliant, right?
**So the Technical Information reads:
**STOP: 0x000000A5 (0x00000011, 0x0000006, 0x0000000, 0x0000000)
*Update* 9/10/2015
I removed the RAM and reseated it, just to check. Still no success. I checked all connections on the mother board also, just to verify that none were loose. I have scoured the internet as well as these forums, and tried just about everything suggested. This server certainly has the hardware to run Server 2008, just not sure how to overcome this roadblock. Would REALLY appreciate some insight.
I am at a bit of a loss here. Anyone have any suggestions?
