Recently I’ve installed a Dell Powervault 124T LTO-3 Autoloader on my Windows Server 2003 machine. I properly installed the SCSI card in the server and terminated it when hooking the cables up. I installed the drivers and the system recognizes it.
Upon rebooting my server gets stuck on “Preparing Network Connections” Last time this happened, it was a issue with the APC UPS service. That was months ago and that situation was resolved.
My server was running perfectly until I added this onto the network. I rebooted into safemode to maybe find a service used with the 124T but I couldn’t find one in services.msc.
When it finally gets past the “Preparing network connections” and I log in, I have no access to the network whatsoever. The IP, DNS, Default gateway, etc is correct and I seem to be stuck.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
