We have a Windows 2003 Standard Edition that has been running. All of
sudden, the server does not boot up. When the server boots up, it boots up
to the blue screen of death. Is there a way to boot up the server without
reinstalling the operating system? Thanks.

Do a CHKDSK C: /R

It helped my machine many times.

Have you tried Safe Mode?
 
Re: Windows 2003 Does not boot

Have you tried googling the stop error code?

Re: Windows 2003 Does not boot

I will try Safe Mode. If I boot to Safe Mode, what do I do next? If I
can't boot to Safe Mode, do you have any other suggestions?

Thanks.

Re: Windows 2003 Does not boot

There is no error code. The server keeps rebooting. Thanks.

Re: Windows 2003 Does not boot

Thanks for the information. I have not added any new hardware nor software recently. I think what the hard drives failed because the air conditioner was down. Too bad that my server could not boot up, even in Safe Mode. Thanks.
