Install Windows Server 2003 from Shared Network

  1. On a network server, create a shared resource called \\ServerName\FolderName, where ServerName is the name of your server, and FolderName is the name of the shared resource that you created.
Note: (Ensure that only system administrators have full access to this folder. Other users should have only Read and Execute permissions.)
  1. Copy all of the files and folders from Disc 1 to \\ServerName\FolderName.
  2. Copy all of the files and folders from Disc 2 to \\ServerName\FolderName.
  3. Click Yes to over write the Autorun.inf file.
  4. On the computer on which you want to install Windows Server 2003 R2, log on as an administrator and connect to the shared folder that contains the Setup files.
  5. To first install Windows Server 2003, in the i386 folder, click Winnt32.exe. For 64-bit versions, this file is located in the Amd64 folder.
  6. Follow the instructions on your screen. When you are prompted to enter the Product Key, type the Product Key that comes with the two product discs.
  7. After Setup for Windows Server 2003 is complete, log on to the computer as an administrator. Setup for Disc 2 should start automatically. If it does not start automatically, connect to the shared folder that contains the Setup files and in the \Cmpnents\R2 folder, click Setup2.exe.
  8. Follow the instructions on your screen.
