Here is the info screen from my Meridian server:

Code:

11/07/2004  8:07:33  Command: info version

Product: 0 - "Minnie: 2 drive IDE" - Platform Bytes "1.1.0"
Server-4.0.830, Build Date: Dec 24 2003 19:04:49
This is the NON-Debug executable, and was built by KEVIN
You are logged in as user ROOT (local)

I am not sure why the Platform Bytes are not sticking. If you set the platform bytes and then reboot the server (without upgrading), are the kept or do they get reset back to zeros?

Bios version information:

Code:

11/07/2004  8:16:54  Command: bios version


  Failsafe Bios not found

  Bios stamp v1.2.180 Thu Dec 10 17:48:55 1998

  Plat Bytes 1.1.0

  Model Byte 0

Reviewing your post, I see that you have a newer bios than I do. Mine, is 1.2.180. I wonder if that is related.

I believe that the server are upgraded after the server is rebooted. Maybe with the numbers going back to zero is the reason why the update is not taking.

This may sound like a silly question, but you do have HD installed in your snap server? I remember reading a thread about someone not having HD installed. The HD is needed to store upgrade files. I think that the upgrade files are stored in \snaperserver\os_private\temp you can check there to see if your upgrade files there.
