Upgrade Question

Hi,

I have a windows 2000 server installed on my server, I recently bought
windows 2003 full version. I am trying to upgrade instead of a full install
and I cannot get it to work. Is there a file that I need to remove to make
it upgrade like there was when upgrading from NT to 2000?

Thanks

From within W2K, run Winnt32 from the CD-ROM

I tried that and it states that upgrade is not supported from win2k to
windows 2003 standard. Any ideas?

Thanks

You cannot upgrade an Advanced server to the Standard one.
