blue screens.
Servers All Integrity
Workaround Ensure that you install all Microsoft patches and Quick Fix Engineering updates
(QFEs) that are available on the current HP Smart Update media.
Installation
Attempting installation from Second DVD drive results in system message
Issue If you attempt to install a Smart component on the second DVD drive of a system
that contains two DVD drives, you will be prompted to insert a DVD into the
first drive and the component is not installed. For example, consider a system
that has two DVD drives, the first of which is the D:\ drive and the second is
the E:\ drive. If you attempt to install a Smart component such as Virus Throttle
from the E:\ drive, the system assumes it is running from D:\ and issues a
message about the missing DVD. This problem also occurs if your system runs
an ILO DVD drive as a second drive and if you use CD media.
Servers All Integrity
Workaround To avoid this issue, run the Smart components from first DVD drive.
Japanese QFE package fails to install all QFEs
Issue The Japanese operating system Quick Fix Engineering (QFE) package
cp007519.exe for Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 2 does not install
correctly. The package should install four QFEs, but only three are installed.
You can confirm this by going to Add/Remove Programs in the Control
Panel. When you check the Show Updates box, you will see that only three
QFEs are shown — Microsoft QFE package 929054 does not appear.

Control Panel.
Installation from graphics console may require additional steps
Issue When using vKVM to install Windows Server 2003 on rx3600 or rx6600 with a
graphics console attached, you must either disconnect the graphics console or
edit the boot entry to add the /NOVESA option.
Servers rx6600, rx3600
Workaround See the Smart Setup Guide for more details on editing boot entries.
Hyper-threading may cause installation failure
Issue When installing the OS using Microsoft reinstall media on a system with
hyper-threading enabled, the installation may fail.
Servers Superdome (sx2000), rx8640, rx7640, rx6600, rx4640, rx3600, rx2660, rx2620
Workaround Before installing the OS from Microsoft reinstall media, disable hyper-threading.
After installing the OS, you must install KB #919385 from the HP Smart Update
media. Hyper-threading can then be re-enabled.
