QuoteYou should NOT enable DirectX and Graphic Acceleration on this OS. It is a server, and is meant to be used as one.

so i quote mr microsoft himself
Quote by Bill GatesAll drivers for Windows Server 2003 are maintained and deployed by Microsoft. This operating system currently provides drivers for RAGE XL products only.

While Windows Server 2003 display drivers are not available from ATI directly, you may obtain updates through Windows Update, or other deployment option from Microsoft.

Windows Server 2003 is positioned as a business and corporate enterprise server Operating System. It is not intended for home or personal use.
