Hi all, have read the MS and various other help sites
regarding this error and have established its beacuse of a
CHIPSET problem not virus or any other error.

The problem occurred when I recently changed the
motherboard because the old one died, unfortunately could
not get hold of an exact board and so opted for a better
one.

However now no matter what type of startup I attempt
whether it be a safe, cmd, or restore etc it just gives
the BSoD with the above error.

Woudl anyone know how I can get around this or does this
mean the end of my current installation and I shall need
to reinstall and reconfigure or is there some other way of
resucing a server ??
 
Should be a STOP 0x7B, you would need to install the drivers for the
RAID/SCSI card that the machine is booting off of. If you havea backup of
the data, you can do an inplace upgrade on the OS and that would also allow
the new hardware to be detected properly.
