Innovation is doing new things. We make software that helps you do both.

Go around and try to locate a copy of this exact version, and it should work for you. For a good guide to convert/tweak Win2k3 server to an even nicer workstation go here: http://win2k3.msfn.org/

It installed OK. But after reboot never reached login screen. At first I though of viruses and used Avira (from another OS partition), which found Vundo (OMG!), deleted it. But W2K3 still would not boot into desktop, just continuous restart, that’s all. Then I went to Safe Mode and uninstalled ZA antispyware from there, and Windows booted just as it always did.
