Windows Server 2003 on 9300 or 9200

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
For large sql server databases over 4gb, multiple web sites and ability to run things like Exchange you need 2003 Server.

Anyone tried Windows 2003 Server on the 9200, or thought about compatibility for this machine.

Any driver issues? Most concerned about new sonoma chipset and things like the graphics card.

Obviously nobody has any experience with it on a 9300 yet, but maybe somone has tried it on a 9200 - or just knows more than I do about drivers.

I have an MSDN universal subscription in case anybody wonders 'why would you want to do that' and 'where did you get it - its a $1000 program'. And I have it on my current compaq laptop and generally everything has been smooth. So please dont reply with reasons why I *shoudlnt* do this!

thansk!

All the drivers for XP should work in 2003. A girl I work with has 2003 on her laptop and it's an older model. I'll be putting 2003 on my 9300/iXPS2.
