Server 2003 drivers
Hi there
I have installed the server2003, but wasn't able to find the audio n video drivers. This is X8SIE supermicro mother board with graphics card GeForce GT220. Can someone help me to find these.
I have tried the manufacturer's website too.
Thnx
Vikrant

Re: Server 2003 drivers
If the mfg doesn't make drives for it, then likely that OS is not fully support by that hardware. Often the Windows XP drivers will work for video, but hard to say about the audio. On the nvidia site you can find some drivers for your video card. Even the supermicro site doesn't seem to provide much in the way of drivers. Did you get a driver CD with your motherboard?

Re: Server 2003 drivers
Unfortunately you're at the mercy of the mfg and there's not too much we can do to help you. That's one thing to always consider when purchasing hardware, is there drivers for it.

Re: Server 2003 drivers
Well again, you're at the mercy of MS when it comes to activation. Did you purchase your copy of Windows from a reputable source/retailer? If so you may have some recourse with them, or you'll have to call MS to get it resolved.
