I know this group is for 2000, but I read it all the time and I can't find
one on here for 2003.

I have a Windows 2003 DC that is having hard drive issues. To start with one
of the drives was having to be rebuilt everytime it was rebooted. Now one of
the drives has a red x on it and the server doesn't come all the way back up.
They are scsi drives. They is my first time working with scsi drives so
please bare with me.

By not coming all the way up, I mean when you boot it, you get the F1, F2
options for one of the drives and I choose F1 and the server's screen goes
black with the splash screen ( rebuilting the drive i suppose) but that's it.
I can ping the server by ip and I can access the hard drive using run
\\server ip\c$.... Don't know what that tells you but I hoping one of you can
help.

Going to replace the hard drive we have been having to rebuilt, before this
started. I was also going to demote the server from a DC to a file server  
and just leave DNS on it. It's not the master nor does it run any of the 5
roles. It is used for DNS and is a DC and we have shares and have file
replication set up. Since this server went down with are having problems with
the master DC running slow and lots of DFS Replication errors and sysvol
errors. But that's another tread. I'll address this once I get this under
control.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance,
Donna
