Well im back, i took a little time away from any coding and rebuilt my workstation with 2003 (XP's pro IIS isnt the best). This also gave me a chance to "reclaim my inbox" and finally dump Outlook to switch to Thunderbird, and i'm glad i've done that. The install went well all except for my ATI graphics card. This was due to W2k3 basic setup with lack of Grahpics acceleration. Thats when i came across "Convert Windows Server 2003 to a Workstation. Not only did it solve a few grapic issues, but you can also find other information there about sound acceleration, themes, adv.configuration and the Shutdown Tracker!On top of that - Happy New Year to all
