What A Problem?

I have been handling a server from last 2 months.Actually this server as owner says got restart suddenly then when it started working suddenly all machine attached to it got dump error.After manually restarting the server the attached machine came back to life but server got out off order.Its getting restart continuously after every 10 seconds.It reaches till booting point then suddenly dump error screen flashes for a second or two then again it gets restart.
I am trying to solve this problem but am not getting where it is actually.So now I have decided to format its C drive,but problem is that office persons will loose there database as they didnt took backup from last week.
What to do?

Your problem seems to be critical but it seems to me that you don't have any other option than to tell office persons to loose database of a week but this data can be restored by restoring softwares available.

i think you should get a more qualified personnel to solve the issues with the server itself. from what i see, you can't start the server? but what database is it running? what server version? you can backup the database actually how? first one need to know what database is it running

are u hired to repair/recover the server? or you are the server administrator?
