Re: Windows Server 2003 RELEASED

It could be the stick; MS is a bit "fussier" relating to memory sticks than Linux or Android. Using Gparted wipe and reformat and wipe it again; then try to write the image to it again. Yeah when I tried to install SP1 just now it stated corrupt file; and I have used this same service pack...

Re: Windows Server 2003 RELEASED

matbro51 I never checked the size; but typically if you "unrar" it and its a partial file; it'll error out with CRC errors. So it might not be worth the effort to download it again. You might have an issue though with your 4Gb stick. I noticed that 4Gb can be either more or less. If the im...

Re: Windows Server 2003 RELEASED

3rd time; same as before. Right before the completion; errors out; and starts to restore files before update; all automatically. So; next try will install SP1 (even though its already installed) and see what happens. Since now I have the other Jogglers; I can put this one back together again and uti...

Re: Windows Server 2003 RELEASED

Dan, Yes; third time trying here and its about 3/4 of the way through the installation of files. If it works this time will compress the image down to less than 4 Gb and post for download. I'm let it boot up numerous drivers and removed the start up stuff; touch screen works fine, NIC and sound are ...

Re: Windows Server 2003 RELEASED

matbro51 I saw that error when trying to boot using the internal USB port. Yesterday went to "testing" with a microdrive connected to a 7 port non powered USB hub. It wouldn't boot port after port until I hit one that would boot. The error though is different and related to a non functiona...

Re: Windows Server 2003 RELEASED

So I had a look at what was going on. Installing a new kitchen faucet. I am not a plumber. Error box in the middle that said restoral was no complete that W2003 may not work. I will try the update once more. It rebooted fine but still indicates that its at SP1. Will give it another try. I now have m...

Re: Windows Server 2003 RELEASED

I let the SP2 install; and it appeared to look OK before I went to bed last night. This morning I saw an error statement about and it started to "undo" the SP2 undate on its own. I've give it another try today. I never got a chance to see what it had installed.

Re: Windows Server 2003 RELEASED

Put the 2003 image on the 30Gb microdrive and an 8 Gb flash drive. Once its working will compact it back down to 4Gb and upload image. I did get the error noted previously. It has to do with IE not being installed on the W2003. Initially tried to install IE8 and it would not install. Instead I just ...

Re: Windows Server 2003 RELEASED

I took apart this old 1U server with 2003Server embedded on it. It has a Foxconn small 1/2 mini ITX board in it. The DOM appears to be an IDE on a miniPCI card with a ribbon cable going to the board. I've never seen one like this. The computer doesn't have a monitor but it has a VGA connector on the...

Re: Windows Server 2003 RELEASED

Good idea Dan. I was trying to boot the external USB with W2003 on it. I just copied the internal EFI boot files into a separate directory such that they didn't exist. I then went to boot off the external USB and the EFI looked at the NTFS partiton on the internal USB; started to boot off of it; and...

Re: Windows Server 2003 RELEASED

I've put my Joggler back together with the USB SSD inside. The other day I tried to just disable the EFI partition to be able to boot off an external USB with another NTFS partition and ended up trashing the internal NTFS partition. There has to be another way to do this. I'll take it apart today an...

Re: Windows Server 2003 RELEASED

I currently run SP2 on all of the W2003 boxes here; but no wireless with W2003. Never really paid attention to space utilized with SP2 versus SP1 on W2003. The W2003 embedded with SP2 is at 3.75 Gb of space.

Re: Windows Server 2003 RELEASED

Here's a quick read on the W2003 WPA2 stuff: http://darrenwatt.com/applying-wpa2-via-group-policy-in-windows-server-2003/ I also forgot to state that the W2003 image didn't have SP2 as far as I could tell. MS Technet mentions the update with SP2. Looks to be a pita to update from what I see googling.

Re: Windows Server 2003 RELEASED

The time thing is also related to how fast the computer tries to sync the time relative to how fast its connecting to the network. I use Tardis (years now) and internally sync to a "time server" on my network that uses GPS. I ended up installing a 3rd party freeware application with a dela...
