From: Fanor P. on 1 Apr 2010 12:23 Hi all, I was trying to install windows server 2003 enterprise (evaluation version) in a second partition; however, it stops with a blue screen during copying the files. error message " A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer . ....... ....... Check for any viruses on your computer..... ..... " The computer is new and it has windows 7 installed in the first partition. I didn't have any problem installing in an older computer. Any help is really appreciated. TIA -- Fanor Ponce MCITP : Database Administrator, Business Intelligence Developer
From: Dusko Savatovic on 2 Apr 2010 03:39 BSOD during setup of Windows Server 2003 or Windows XP can be linked to missing mass storage driver (SATA, SCSI, RAID etc). Get a suitable mass storage driver and copy it to a diskette. Insert diskette. Select boot option so that CD boot is first in order. Reboot the system and observe bottom line on the console. When prompted, press F6 to indicate that you want to install additional mass storage driver. Perhaps the KB article below may help. It mentions SCSI, but is equally aplicable to recent SATA controllers. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314859 "Fanor P." <ronaf09(a)hotmail.com> wrote in message news:479CB503-D36E-45DF-9708-1ECEE953DD0A(a)microsoft.com... > Hi all, > I was trying to install windows server 2003 enterprise (evaluation > version) in a second partition; however, it stops with a blue screen > during copying the files. > > error message " A problem has been detected and windows has been shut > down to prevent damage to your computer . > ...... > ...... > Check for any viruses on your computer..... > ....

Dusko has a good idea about the cause. Be careful, though, about installing it on a W7 computer. 2003 is XP based. If you install XP on a computer with W7, you will lose access to the W7 partition. Do some research first for techniques on how to install an XP based OS after W7. Normally, one installs the older OS and then the new one.
