| 173127 | 2003-09-05 03:32:00 | Yep, running one here. It is no real difference. It does revert back to the classic style windows but you can change it if you want. I did notice a huge delay in the shutdown when Exchange Server is installed but hey your not suppose to shut down servers anyway. |

| 173129 | 2003-09-05 06:45:00 | Hi , Big John.Does Windows 2003 Server have System Restore Incorporated into it ? can it be used as a stand alone system ? Is it hard to set up and I've also heard that finding drivers might be a problem for it.Did you have any hassles in this area ? regards ruup |

| 173131 | 2003-09-05 12:07:00 | The version I am running is the beta that was given out for testing with Office 2003. It does have the restore just as XP. Had no trouble with the two machines I installed it on. Only thing it failed to add was the Audigy sound card. I had to find the driver myself and install and it went fine. All other hardware was picked up no issues. Setup was very easy as it has wizards to set everything up for you. The DNS is a bit of a hassle to set up if you are going to use it on the machine. I let it set itself up and then tweaked it later. |
