If it absotively, posilutely won't take recognize the USB connections (presuming you've gone through and made sure any necessary BIOS settings are enabled)... you're probably looking at needing to make a custom install disk for it with the mass storage drivers injected should HP not offer a SmartStart equivalent that's W2k3 compatible.

We have also used a USB thumb wheel which we formated to look like a Floppy Drive, and same result. Unfortunately, Windows Server 2K3 will only look for the Hard drive drivers on a "floppy" disk. We have a HP Proliant ML110 and were trying to set up a raid. Any ideas on how to get around the floppy issue?
