I have a Box at home that runs as a filestore currently running on a copy of XPpro i does its job well enough but i would like to use the functions of activedirectory etc in server 2003

i was wondering what driver model it used as i can only find the xp drivers for my mobo.
and i dont really want to do a full reinstall only to find that the drivers don't work

Cheers

Which motherboard ( actually which chipset ) you have ?
Most of the Windows XP drivers work correctly in Windows 2003 as well.

Edit:

u need drivers for its chipset check intel or nvidia or amd homepage
Ha ha! You forgot Via & SiS :D

i'm running windows server 2003. You're going to have very few driver issues if any. Its the same kernel as xp. Its actually more stable IMO.

ALL of the drivers I use are actually XP drivers. They run fine.

Good luck. :up:
