Re: 2003 Trial Version -- setup dialog troubleshooting

 

Hello everyone,

i downloaded the windows server trial version to practice at home, however

i'm having a small problem. I downloaded the ISO file in my work place and

when i get at home, i inserted the CD and all it shows up is a the file

X13-05665.img. When i double click the icon i get an error message saying

that windows cannot open the file and if i would like to select a program

from a list or use the internet to open the file.

I know this might sounds silly but i really don't know what to do.

 

Thank you in advance

Hello miguel,

 

..img is an image file that can not run oin this way. Use your burning software

and choose the option to burn from image file. Then it will extract the real

folder structure to disk.

Hi Meinolf,

i do apreciatte your help and thank's a lot for the prompt reply.

 

Problem as well is that i'm trying to install the trial version on a old

computer that doesn't have cd-rw but functions at 800mhz processor and 512

RAM. It's enough to practice at home.

Is it possible to connect my laptop or my recent computer to my old computer

with a network cable, and load the cd from my most recent computer ( wich has

the cd-rw) to the old computer?

I also have an external cd-rw from the old computer but for my bad luck is

not working,...

 

Kind regards

Hello miguel,

 

If you have the real disk burned, copy it to a shared folder on the machine.

Give both machines fixed ip's and use a cross cable to connect them directly

or connect via a switch. Create a boot disk, http://www.bootdisk.com/ , with

network support and connect to the share from theire it should be possible

to start the installation.

 

Best regards

Hello Meinolf,

 

thank's a lot once again for your prompt reply.

 

I'm just installing the windows server with a Evaluation KIT CD that i asked

at school.

 

Allthought, the way you troubleshoot the problem looks perfect to me and it

should work. Plus, is a good lesson for me because i only have 2 exams done

so far. Thank you so much once again :-)

 

Kind regards
