This may be one of those times that an original license from HP is NO longer valid (the M$ server database corruption issue, as I have seen it many times before, as I am also HP Authorized). If you have a valid COA for this OS on your HP system, then it is time to call HP and start bitching. Because the system is an HP system, M$ told us it was an HP issue, and not a M$ issue, even though it really is a M$ issue!
