Is there an alternative to the Update Manager - download the latest VMWare Tools for Windows Server 2003
Hello
I am really struggling to find an alternative to the Update Manager to download the latest VMWare Tools for Windows (Server 2003)
There must be a link of just download somewhere? I scoured VMWare.com nothing helps...
I can find of the OSP for other platforms (SUSE, Ubuntu etc), but nothing for Windows! Why?
Any help really appreciated!
Kind regards
Tony.
So you are saying I need to download the latest version of ESX/vSphere and then extract the VM Tools of which rpm?
It might be a way to get them, if you are unable to install the product.
The version will say vSphere 4.0 be OK for ESXi 3.5 VMs?
Yes

Tecra A10 - 12O: installing the driver network card in Windows Server 2003 R2 Std
Hello
I received 6 laptop Tecra A10 - 12O, and we need to install Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition with SP2 in all these six machines. Windows Server 2003 has been installed perfectly, but now we have only the network LAN card to work but we are unable to install its driver. When I installed Windows XP from the supplied DVD for Toshiba, it says Intel 82567V Gigabit network adapter. I tried to download the drivers for this adatpor of drivers Toshiba, Intel Web site, but it will not install in Windows Server 2003. I also tried manually force to choose and install a driver from the list, I choose that it will install but shows yellow question mark in Device Manager means that it does not work with this driver.
I also tried the same Intel 82567V drivers from some sites non-Toshiba, of these models using the same network card, but is not truck drivers at all.
I understand these laptop computers does not support Windows Server 2003, but these were ordered to be used as servers with Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition and I am required to make the Installer only with activated and installed network adapter.
I try last week and exhausted all means to get the installed network adapter driver, but all have failed. Can someone please help with this? All support will be highly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hey Buddy
If I m not wrong Windows Server 2003 uses the same drivers as Win XP and I guess that it s driver problem not a LAN, but perhaps also the problem of Windows Server 2003 installed.
You are right; the LAN chip seems to be Intel 82567V and the LAN driver downloaded from Intel page should work 100%.
In your case, I would recommend installing the chipset driver.
Remove the LAN card from Device Manager, then restart the laptop.
Then go back to Device Manager and update driver in pointing devices Manager to the place where the driver downloaded LAN was stored on the HARD drive. -
Need driver Audio for Windows server 2003 for the INSPIRON 1545 laptop
Hi all
I need Audio and video drivers for my new laptop computer Inspiron 1545 laptop. It now supports drivers for Vista, XP and Windows 7 only.
I installed Windows server 2003 to install SAP. But I am unable to get the sound.and not able to install video and audio drivers.
Please help me how to get these drivers.
Thanks in advance,
Delphine.
Delphine,
This is how it was done before Vista. There could be a better way now.
1 enable the Windows Audio Service. (This should already be activated in 2003 Standard Edition). For other versions:
Go to start/run and type "services.msc" and press the 'Enter' key (or click on 'ok'). The Services window appears. Scroll down the page until you find "Windows Audio" to the bottom of the list. Double-click on it and change the type of startup to automatic, and then click Start, apply, then OK.
2. download and install the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 KB901105 update from this page of Microsoft:
http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=901105
3. restart.
4 install the audio driver for Windows XP. If you have trouble to install it using Windows XP compatibility mode.
5. set the hardware acceleration DirectX:
Click Start/run and type "dxdiag" and press the 'Enter' key (or click on 'ok'). Go to the Audio tab and move the slider to 'Level of hardware acceleration Sound' at full speed.

try to install the driver only on a windows Server 2003 for hp1525nw.
I want to install the driver Laser Jet CP1525nw on our windows 2003 print server to be available to our users. If I install using the software of HP I can't just install the driver and so can not install the printer a printer on the print server
It seems that you just need the base without any additional software driver.
The base driver should be able to be downloaded and installed the correct operating system to color HP LaserJet Pro CP1525nw printer.
Select the software and driver downloads and choose the operating system you need. In this case, Windows Server 2003. Expand the pilot section and there will be two: full functionality and basic driver. The base driver is just the driver itself without any additional software, and this should do what you need.

After restarting the server I reconnected the "BOLD" to the server and once more Windows he acknowledged and began the installation process, this time however, the VM didn't pick it up and I had to click on VM > removable devices > usb devices to start the process of installing how he immediately provoked the stop error blue screen again.
We run BES 4.1.4 on Windows Server 2003 in a virtual machine (VMWare 1.0.4) environment
Does anyone have any suggestions? I don't want to plug it back for fear of crashing the BES server again.

How to update the model of RDS for Windows Server 2012 collection?
Hi team,
I want to know how to update the collection of RDS model (model master sysprep) which is used to create the collection?
I tried the below way but did not get the update of the collection of virtual machines.
-Start the image of mater of sysprep
-install the required components
-resysprep the image and stop it
-East went to the RDS Collection and added new virtual machines in collection (removed the old his)
Once created, I opened a session in the machines, but I don't see the updates (I installed some software in the sysprep image however and no is not there in the virtual machines in the pool)
Can someone let me know if I need to create a whole collection again or the way I do it is a proper way? If it's a good way what could be the reason why I get the new installed software model sysprep image in virtual machines created in the pool, based on the model?
How do we actually updated for security and other regular patches updated in virtual machines? In my view, we use the same approach?
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Kind regards
