"No Physical Memory available at the location for Windows Boot Manager"

[JoshJ5Hawk]

Hello everyone,
I am currently getting this error when attempting to install Windows Server 2008 (Which I believe was based off of Vista, which is why it's here). Now I'm attempting to boot from the DVD, however when press any key to boot, I get the error mentioned in the topic.

I have been searching around for solutions for a few days now and have yet to come across the solution.

Now this is a server board (Intel S5000PSL) With Dual Intel Xeons, 8 GB of RAM, and a 1 TB Hard Drive that I nuked over night (fully erased using DBAN). The catch is, I can install Windows Server 2003 with Zero Problems.

Any help is appreciated. Thank You,
Josh

Looks like a problem with your install-DVD. Is it an original MS DVD? Or probably a some sort of backup media? An image of a hdd installation for example?

It is a back up, I make back-ups of install CD's and save them, because I'm horrible at keeping track of CD's sometimes lol.

I did test this disk on another machine and it booted up perfectly, however I did still attempt a second disk, and still no go. I do have a Windows 7 Home Premium disk around (Original OEM) that I tried to fire up as well, which gave the same error.

Other steps I've tried:
Re-Seating all 8 Sticks of Ram
Only Using Two Sticks (One for each CPU to utilize)
Only Using One Stick (To try and use only One CPU, but the device doesn't post)
