Installing Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and Small Business Server 2003
Section 3. Configuring the System
Phase 1 – Performi ng Hardware Status Check
In this section, you will run the Windows Device Manager tool to identify any issues
with the installed devices or resource conflicts.
1. Open Start > Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager. Verify
that no devices have either a yellow band (!) or question mark (?) symbol next to
it.
— Yellow (!) means that there is a resource issue with the device.
— Question (?) means that the device is unknown.
If (!) or (?) symbols are reported then double click on each of the devices with (!)
or (?). Use the Device Status message for troubleshooting. Or, if a printer is
available, use the Action > Print from the menu to get a report.
2. Verify if the installed drivers are digitally signed.
a. In the Device Manager window, click SCSI and RAID controllers and select
the device (e.g. Adaptec AIC-7902-based Ultra320 SCSI) that you want to
verify.
b. Right-click to select Properties > Driver.
c. Locate Digital Signer:. If the driver of that device is digitally signed, it will
be indicated by the signer. If the driver of the device is not digitally signed,
we recommend that you check the HP Website
www.hp.com to install the
latest driver package for that device.
3. Exit the Device Manager, System Properties and Control Panel applications.
4. Check the event viewer to make sure that there are no errors in the log. Click
Start > All Programs > Administrative Tools > Event Viewer.
NOTE: Windows 2003 Event Viewer may have recorded network errors because your
network is not configured yet. Disregard these errors.
5. Exit Event Viewer.
