Default Windows Server Help
Hi, I'm playing around with a Windows Server 2008 Trial install and cant get programs such as Firefox and uTorrent any internet however IE connects fine. Even installs that try and update while installing are blocked. I don't have much experience with Windows Server OS's and this is getting really frustrating lol

As a workstation, enabling SupertFetch will give you that additional bit of responsiveness. The SuperFetch services is disabled by default and when you try to enable it you will most likely get an error message "The operating system is not presently configured to run this application"

You will have to make two registry changes to enable this service. I basically copied them over from my Vista machine.

for Server 03, you need to get some file that helps you to enable all that stuff... without it that OS is hostile to those not in the know :P

maybe it can help you fix some other issues you might have, like lack of sound, etc...

go to the windows or OS forum, above here, and then click on the 'turn your server into a workstation' link that's stickied... all info is in the first post iirc, but beware, it's for server 03, so might not work for server 08
