Forest Root Disaster Recovery

[Guest]

I'm trying to do a disaster recovery for our forest root (AD 2003) on a new
hardware, The machine is a member of a workgroup with the same machine name
as the one to be recovered in production and different IP address. I tried to
restore the system state twice one before after doing a DCPromo and the other
one afer promoting the server, also, I tried to restore C: drive along with
system state. All the attempts failed, the restoration was successful but the
machine won't boot after restart. What wrong I'm doing? Do you have a step by
step to follow? Help me please.

I think you are having problems because of the new hardware.
