Over the last week I've been attempting to install Windows 10 on a server unit (IBM X3650 M3) but haven't had success. If anyone could assist, there was someone who faced this issue before but didn't reply. I'm stuck and don't know anyone with server OS experience. Original post (same problem occurs on my screen too, showing it failed, though mine reaches 31%). I've already removed previous operating systems, but the built-in BIOS menu remains. Need guidance to get Windows 10 set up.

Is it compatible with other operating systems such as Linux? Have you experimented with a different USB drive using an ISO file that was just downloaded? It might be a hardware issue.

I see your setup—using a Windows 10 installation disk and another PC to boot on drive 0. The server still shows no OS detected. You mentioned removing other drives and wondering if you need to switch to RAID. Since Windows 10 is installed directly on the primary drive, it should be functional unless there are hardware issues. Let me know if you need further help!

Hey same thing, pretty old thread, but yes, yes indeed it was a raid configuration issue. I actually need to move everything to another pc today in order to reformat the raid, since I only got 6 of the drives. I recommend looking it up on youtube, one indian company has a tutorial on how to config raid. The only thing is, your card may show up somewhere else in pc if its in another slot, or improperly configured. Thanks all.
