Not during installation. The server has been running for
some time and I did a restart andd get the bsod -
inaccessible boot device. I want to reload the driver
without reinstalling. I need to know the best way to
perform this. I can not start this server in any mode.
I am not sure if it is bad controller or corrupted
driver. I do not believe it is a virus or hard drives.

Thanks
 
Scott,
