This is a mailing list for FreeBSD, not Microsoft Windows.

If you google for 'SUN V20z Operating System' you will get many interesting and helpful links, eg

http://www.sun.com/products-n-solutions/hardware/docs/Servers/Workgroup_Servers/Sun_Fire_V20z/
http://de.sun.com/Produkte/Hardware/WGServer/v20z/details.html (german)

have you checked that the disks are ok and accessible - eg by installing FreeBSD, Linux or
Solaris? have you checked for latest bios-update? Are you using an external disk array? 
Check if it supports windows at all.

Please note that 
 - FreeBSD (or any *BSD)
 - Linux (Redhat, SuSE,...)
 - Solaris (also available for V20z)
are not Microsoft Windows Operating Systems.

I have mentioned that this is a FreeBSD mailing list?
