[cisco-voip] installing windows server 2008 standard on hp server

[anand]

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.

Can i directly boot the dvd from the drive as you are mentioning that smart
start is already installed.Does it affect in anyway if i directly boot the
image rather than using step by step process of hp smart start.


thanks,
anand.
