Support for Microsoft Windows Server 2003

Hello

Can you please let me know the end of support for Windows Server 2003?

I manage and application that is currently running on Windows Server 2003 and will soon migrate to Windows Server 2012 but the exact date is not decided, as a lot of analysis should be done prior to the actual migration.

Please let me know when Microsoft end this support for their Windows Server 2003 so that I can work on that accordingly.

That would be really helpful. Any announcement already made by Microsoft on this? I found a few things online stating it would be 2015, but nothing seems to have come directly from Microsoft.

Thank you in advance for the information.

  • What product Vmware is the best for several Windows Server 2003 and 2008 implementation

    Hi all

    I am just wondering that if I installed VMware on Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition and Windows Server 2003 Enterprize edition on VMware I was able to use more Ram installed, our server have 48GB of Ram but Server 2003 Standard allows only 4 GB max to use, to save money, I was wondering just if I can use the way I mentioned above.

    Looking at it, I think you have a misconception about the limitations of VMware, RAM and operating system. Your problem is that you see no more than 4 GB of RAM on your x 86 Server 2003 install? This is a limitation of the operating system - to use more RAM you need an operating system that can deal with the RAM.

    • If you install VMware Workstation on Windows Server 2003 standard x 86 edition then you will only be able to use the 4 GB of RAM, Windows Server 2003 Standard x 32 can process.

    • If you install VMware Workstation on Windows Server 2003 standard x 64 edition then you will be able to use the 32 GB of RAM that Windows Server 2003 Standard x 64 can process.

    • If you install VMware ESX, you can adjust your full 48GB of RAM and install multiple instances of Win 2003 Svr Standard, each of which can address 4 GB of your memory live available.

  • VMware for Microsoft Windows Server 2007 on zeon computer intel 64-bit

    , I use a Microsoft Windows 2007 server on a 64-bit of zeon computer intel.  I tried several downloads "for Windows" of http://www.vmware.com/download/player/download.html , but none of them worked (quietly quit without error).  I suspect it's because that 64-bit problem because I had it on my PC which is a processor Intel Pentium 32-bit machine.  Someone there to operate on similar systems?  Any suggestion for a download that can work is appreciated!

    Server2 indicates Windows Server 2008 as the operating system, a host in charge.  Workstation and the Player do not support Windows Server 2008 as a host operating system.  So there may be problems installing with these products.  I have never try Workstation or Player on Windows Server 2008 so I can't say.

    With regard to the Server2, the starting points usual troubleshooting: have you rebooted the machine, then tried to start the installation program?  Windows is up-to-date?  Gives messages to the event log?  You have enough disk space for the installation?

    In addition, you'll want to post in the appropriate forum for the product you are trying to install.  This is the forum for VMWare Player.  There are forums for

  • 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.
