Server rebooting loop after restore

Thread needs solution

Greetings,

We recently made an image backup of one of our entire 2003 HP servers, we then attempted to restore it on to an old Dell 2850, It completed the restore, but when the server tries to boot- it gets past all the RAID/BIOS screens up to the Windows Server 2003 screen, stays there for about 15 secs then goes black and reboots.

Any ideas where we went wrong?

Thanks

Pyke

Hello Pyke,

Thank you for your question! The most common reason for boot issues on newly restored systems with different hardware are missing drivers, especially for RAID controller. Please restore the system using Acronis Universal Restore and add appropriate drivers to the bootable media. Make sure you are using the latest build (43994). For more information please refer to the following articles:

Thank you,
