Probably, you don't need a driver after you install Windows 2003 server. Have you installed it yet?

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.

use WinXP drivers. when those aren't available, use Win2K smile.gif

Not only that ^, but Microsoft apparently writes the drivers so they are certified to work on a 2k3 box without causing problems.

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.

ignore the nay sayers just use xp drivers and sall good. smile.gif
