Microsoft* Windows* may experience blue screen with the error message IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL when the installation media does not include an integrated service pack.
Intel® 5500 and 5520 series server boards support enhanced sleep states, which relies on code found in the service packs as listed below.
* Windows Server* 2003 32-bit and 64-bit requires Service Pack 1
* Microsoft* Small Business Server* 2003 requires Service Pack 1
* Windows* XP 32-bit requires Service Pack 2
Workarounds
1. Temporarily change BIOS settings:
1. BIOS > Advanced > Processor Configuration, disable 'Intel® Hyper-Threading Tech', and set 'Core Multi-Processing' to 1
2. Install core OS, then install service packs
3. Re-enable 'Intel(R) Hyper-Threading Tech', and set 'Core Multi-Processing' back to All
2. Install with media that includes the integrated service pack (slipstreamed)
