I just purchased Windows Home Server software that required a new server to be purchased. I went with the ProLiant350e Gen8 Server. Upon starting up the new ProLiant server I booted from CD-Rom and got to the Windows Install program. I clicked "Install A New Server" However, as soon as this page loads it gives me an error that says "Load Driver" "A required CD/DVD Drive Device Driver is Missing. If you have a floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now." It gives me the option to browse or click okay. Browse only brings up the (x:) Boot drive and VID. It doesn't find the driver in VID Than if I click okay it gives me a message that says "No Device Drivers were found. I have also tried to use Intelligent Provisioning but it checks the DVD drive after I get the error msg. "Unable to find any valid media".
I have tried downloading the driver for Dynamic Smart Array B120i but when I extract all the files then WHS 2011 does not recognise the drivers and will not let me add it to the install process.
On the Dynamic Smart Array I have created two logical drives. Neither of them show up in WHS installation.
Thanks in advance,
