Hi Folks,
My WIN NT Server also doesn't boot to the Admin log on. It is freezing at the blue screen. My server is Micron NF6200 and all HDDs are SCSI and I am using a Mylex DAC PCI card.
I tried a lot to re-install or repair my OS by boot up disks and NT Server CD. Each time it fails to detect the HD drives and aborts itself. The system botos to MS DOS, and I can Brouse C:\. But no CD rom support is there.

You must hit f6 during the first part of the detection/load phase to add the scsi controller driver. You much have the Mylex DAC PCI card drivers on floppy diskette. Install will ask for it.
Try booting in vga mode first [2nd choice down in the boot menu]
