IBM X3550 How to install Windows 2008

For IBM server, two CD-ROMs will be used when installing the operating system on the server, the first is the boot disk, the second is the operating system CD-ROM, you must put the boot disk in first, and carry out some installation process settings and driver installation, if you directly put the operating system CD into the installation, then you have to install the driver.

The installation of the server is basically the same as the installation of the PC, regardless of the data in the hard disk, if there is other data in the hard disk, please back it up yourself.

1. Find out the IBM random installation CD (boot disk).

2. Select the corresponding language version (English is selected by default).

3. Select the type of operating system program (be sure to choose the right one).

4. Set up the primary partition. (When the boot is complete, the disc will automatically eject.) 5. Install the system.

Because the CPU is Intel's, the steps to install win2008 are the same as ordinary computers.

You don't need to go to the official website. In fact, this kind of server only needs the network card to be easy to use, and nothing else.

That's what I've done with Dell's blades. CPU, memory, network card are very powerful, the graphics card is loaded with 32M video memory, what driver do you say such a machine needs, only the network card driver is needed. As for the network card driver, you can find it by going to the official website of the network card, or you can also use the driver home.

It could be that the system boot file is broken, or it could be that the system is broken.

If you don't have an optical drive, you can reinstall it with a USB flash drive.

In this way, your USB flash drive can be booted (press F10 to choose which hardware to boot from when you first boot up, it may also be F2, different notebooks are different) and enter the PE temporary system.

2.At this time, you can first check whether there is a problem with the partition, and then download a Gendisk (some PE systems will come with it), open it under PE, choose to repair MBR, and then restart to see if you can enter the system.

3.If it's still not good,This is to reinstall the system,Get a system in advance,It's generally in ISO format,Use Ultral ISO software to decompress it inside,And then install it in PE with ghost。 Can't use ghost to message me.

It's been almost 10 years since the IBM X30 notebook was launched, and it's normal for something to have problems with the machine for so long. Judging from your description, there is a high chance that the hard drive will have problems, and it should be more than just the loss of boot files or MBR. Of course you can give it a try, and if it's just boot files or MBR missing, it's easy to fix.

This notebook is equipped with an external optical drive, so you can set the optical drive boot in the BIOS, after all, the majority of machines in that era were still equipped with optical media. After you boot up with the system disc, select Repair Install and see if you can find the system disk. If so, repair the system; If not, then there is a high chance that the hard drive will be damaged.

But pay attention, if you need to replace the hard disk, pay attention to the hard disk interface, the hard disk at that time is the IDE interface, don't make a mistake.

It may be that the computer's MBR file is corrupted, and if so, it is a problem with the hard drive. My laptop had an optical drive, which was repaired by an MBR repair tool in the boot disk at the time. If you don't have a CD-ROM drive, I don't know how to solve it, find an after-sales or Lenovo repair shop.

Wouldn't it be the easiest way to update the English language pack? Why reload?
