Correcting Flat-Panel Display Video Problems During
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Operating System
Installations
NOTE: The following information applies only to Microsoft Windows Server 2003 operating system
installations on systems that have certain flat-panel displays attached. Systems that have a CRT monitor
attached, or systems that have any other operating system installed, are not affected.
Under certain conditions, the image on some flat-panel displays may roll during the installation of
the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 operating system. This is caused by console redirection being
enabled in the System Setup program (console redirection is disabled by default).
Console redirection is intended for system management from a terminal attached to the system’s
serial port. When Windows Server 2003 detects that console redirection is enabled, it optimizes its
installation screens to a low-resolution text mode for a vt100-compatible terminal. Some flat-panel
displays cannot synchronize to that mode.
To correct the problem, restart the system, enter the System Setup program, and disable console
redirection. After installing the Windows Server 2003 operating system, enter the System Setup
program, and enable console redirection, if desired.
PCI-e Hot-Plug Support
When available, the following PCI Express (PCI-e) Fibre Channel (FC) host-bus adapter (HBA)
cards will support hot plug operation:
• The Emulex PCI-e FC HBA will support hot-replace (replacing an existing card with an
identical card) and hot-remove operations under the Windows Server 2003 and
Windows 2000 Server and Advanced Server operating systems, or the Novell
®
NetWare
®
6.5
operating system (when available). Hot-add will not be supported.
• The QLogic PCI-e FC HBA will support hot-replace and hot-remove operation under the
Windows Server 2003 and Windows 2000 Server and Advanced Server operating systems,
or the Novell NetWare 6.5 operating system (when available). Hot-add will not be supported.
Dell™ PowerEdge™ Expandable RAID Controller (PERC) cards and the Broadcom 5721 PCI-e
NIC do not support hot-plug PCI-e operation.
