Hey guys,

Just wondering how much success people are having with windows 2003 (32bit) server - i am in the process of training myself with it (AD, domain, +exchange) so have just set it up on my home PC.

Problem being - it wont let me setup any of my SATA drives, graphics card or sound card. The sound cards not a biggy, but i need the other two going.

I have a NF7-S 2 m/b, geforce 6600gt, creative audigy LS.
I have googled and checked the manufucturers site (SiliconImage / abit for m/b) but there is no win 2003 drivers.

Is there anything i can do, bar waiting for 2003 drivers that will never come (or changing hardware). Ideas?

Thanks

Install Virtual PC onto an XP-based computer.
Then, install Windows Server 2003 inside it. Much easier than actually building a computer.
You can either purchase Virtual PC 2004, or download a time-limited demo.

RebateMonger,

Thank you, a workaround like that is something i was hoping for!

Will have a look into virtual pc now.

Again, really appreciated.
