The band filmed a documentary ("The Spirit Carries On") of their search for a replacement who they found in Berklee professor Mike Mangini.

It was followed a year later by their ninth studio album, Systematic Chaos.

In 2002, the group released Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence, followed by Train of Thought in 2003, and Octavarium in 2005. Rudess's first work was Scenes from a Memory, a concept album that followed the story of a murder mystery. In 1999, Jordan Rudess was hired to replace Sherinian. The double live album Once in a Livetime was released in 1998. Moore left the group after the recording of 1994's Awake and was replaced by Derek Sherinian for the album's tour-he was later hired as a full member, appearing on the EP A Change of Seasons and the full album Falling Into Infinity. LaBrie's debut album was Images and Words, which was the band's first and only gold-certified album by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), having sold more than 500,000 copies. After firing Dominici, Dream Theater hired Canadian vocalist James LaBrie in 1991.
