 Windows Server 2003 ISASS.EXE System error
I recently removed and re installed my hard drives from my HP server running windows server 2003 and when i restarted the server i received the following message

ISASS.EXE - SYSTEM ERROR Security accounts manager initialization failed because of the following error: directory service cannot start. Error status: 0xc00002e1. Please click OK to shutdown this system and reboot into directory services restore mode, check the event log for more detailed information.

Answer Wiki:
I doubt if this error is really due to removing and reinstalling the drives unless somehow the server was not shutdown properly before the maintenance and the AD database was corrupted. It sounds like you need to go through an AD diagnosis and restore process.
