Hi folks,

I'm trying to boot a server from the 2k3 CD for ASR but the CD-ROM doesn't see the CD. The CD is fine I tested it. I don't have the original CD for 2k3, only a burned copy. Any advice would be highly appreciated. I can boot the server from a w2k CD though.

It most likey doesn't have the boot files on the CD.

The best advice I can give is to located the original Windows 2003 CD, borrow a copy from a friend or purchase a new copy.

Another way is to use a copy of NLite. It is a free program that will create a bootable CD. Just google for it. It is pretty easy to use.
