[QUOTE="joz, post: 521911, member: 70244"] Hi all, I have been thinking a while to migrate my current XP (32 bit) setup to a windows server (I think 2003 then, maybe 2008) 64 bit one. There are multiple reasons but the main one is that the machine is multipurpose it acts as webserver, tvserver and client. I would like to be able to setup domains etc to make my network a little safer (no exp. with that yet though). I also like to have access to the whole 4GB of memory. However I have seen MP problems zapping by on MS server OS's in these forums. Besides that I know of other issues that will come along such as my virusscanner will not install itself because it decides I need some other version for it. There will be other minor things as well. So what do you guys think about this switch? Which server version do you prefer (I have an MSDN subscription so I can get both)? Any tips getting "non server" software to install on such OS's? Not much exp. yet with win servers but will games install at all? :thx:! [/QUOTE]
