Don't know why you'd want to... Code: void main() { cout << "I am MrCode,"; cout << "hear me roar!"; system("PAUSE"); }

Altough Windows Server 2007 is coming up, the 2003 version is still widely used. This bug forces me to use Windows 2000 Server Edition, which is more than 7 years old. my gameDev Blog

As someone else got the same problem I didn't do much testing. Look here: http://www.coniserver.net/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=UBB13&Number=790312 I currently hdon't have a Windows 2003 machine to test, but if it works for you I don't see why it couldn't work for me. my gameDev Blog

I did not install service pack 1, but it definitely works without any service pack! DirectX 9 has to be installed, I'm not quite sure whether "hardware acceleration" has to be set to "full" though. After activating 3D acceleration (dxdiag) and "hardware acceleration" you can even play as a client on the server. To my surprise, the onboard SIS Mirage 1 chip works quite okay . my gameDev Blog
