I'm overseeing a Server 2008 system (a Dell Poweredge) and am having the following issue: On boot, the system will POST and go up to the point where it would normally detect an OS. At that point I just have a blinking cursor and nothing else happens. The system is currently using a RAID 1 setup, and the Raid controller and the BIOS both show the hard drive. There is currently only one physical hard drive currently due to the second one failing a few weeks ago. I CAN boot to the Windows CD. I know that the primary partition is completely (and I mean completely) full. Help?
Things I've tried:
- Resetting NVRAM
- Booting to windows cd (works)
- Hard Drive diagnostics (Dell Smart and Quick tests show Hard drive as working fine)
