qinwarrior Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Probably, you don't need a driver after you install Windows 2003 server. Have you installed it yet?

MazX_Napalm Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 because win2003 are not listed on nvidia (for board) and ati (for video)thanks 585710029[/snapback] Because W2K3 is a server OS and generaly not used for graphics intensive stuff. The generic Windows driver that loads with the OS will give you all the graphics you need.

Menge Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 use WinXP drivers. when those aren't available, use Win2K :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/303714-windows-2003-hardware-driver/#findComment-585710182 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaded Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Not only that ^, but Microsoft apparently writes the drivers so they are certified to work on a 2k3 box without causing problems.

Mattimeo Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Since it's Win2003, the driver that loads should be fine. If your doing 3D gaming though, then you might want to stick to WinXP. If you want to try it, load up the WinXP drivers in Win2003. They should work, but you might see a small performance decrease.
