the problem is a weird DELL driver in [D2]
( location D\M\D2 )
-------

Mass storage is a special pack.
It has an INI.
when you discover that a particular driver creates a problem for you, you can edit the pack.
You use 7zip to unzip it into a folder.
Rename it, and give that new folder a higher version name
An example, 802 (year/month) becomes 8021 (year/month/revision).
And if it was 8021 to begin with it would change to 8022.

what can you do now? You can edit that INI.
When you remove INI sections and leave the folder intact, there is a high probability that everything works after you repack the INI and D folder.
BUT, when you remove a folder, you had better also edit the INI and delete the corresponding section.
If you remove D\M\D2 then you search for section [D2] in the INI.
Please delete the section if you removed the folder.
(By the way, [D2] contains that wretched LSI_SAS.EXE which is case sensitive in suprising ways.)
We fixed the issue for server 2003, but it still acts up for windows 2000? It is a SERVER 2000/2003 driver.. Can I disable it for windows 2000 and expect it to work in Server 2000?)

I will briefly mention that in Mass storage you could edit INI to disable a driver.
you could paste
ms_1_exc_disableIfOS="w2k"
at the bottom of the [D2] section.

another alternative is that you change
[D2]
ms_count=1
into
[D2]
ms_count=0

(zero disables the section, but leaves the driver intact for PnP.)

After you do the edits and/or pruning in that new mass storage folder you use 7zip to repack..
You select the D folder and INI file, and rightclick to use 7zip on selection.
It will automatically suggest the name of the folder, which was already renamed to higher version..
settings for 7zip are Ultra/LZMA/compact.
(look at RAM usage.. The new version of 7zip is not going to let you use almost two Giga while packing it up.. )Hope this helps.

I will try fix this windows 2000 issue with that DELL thing I sweared at more than once..
