Windows 7 professional on Dell PowerEdge 2950?

Windows 7 with SP1 does indeed install to a PowerEdge 2950. You may have some issues with drivers, but nothing that isn't insurmountable. (I usually load Win7 Pro to these for burn-in testing before installing the final OS.)

I would suggest to use Win7 Pro x64, as that allows you to use more than 4GB of RAM.

Good Luck.

Hey bro thanks a lot, it's not urgent to put Windows 7 but when I do I'll let you know

Putting Windows 7 on it will not mean there will not still be "many problems" on it. What kind of problems? Could be hardware issues, could be incompatibilities with 2008, 64-bit, drivers, etc.

The only real issue I have ever run into was that the video controller is not very robust. As such, games and screen savers are problematic.

If I might ask, what are the problems you are having with Server 2008?

What kind of problems will I face? If it is driver problem I can manage that somehow.....

Odd, you could try it under Win7 as the Tally ERP site shows it as being compatible, but I would tend to trust Server 2008 more than Win7 to run well long-term without a reboot.

(I know Win7 SHOULD be fine, but I have seen too many cases where "Shut Up and Reboot" was needed to fix odd networking issues...)

What flavor of Server 2008 are you running? (Original or R2? Data Center, Standard, Etc.)

I'm running Windows server 2008 R2 Standard

Hi, I installed windows 7 professional x64 and all the drivers were automatically installed and computer seems to be working great

What about the SAS Driver? At the time of installation don't you have recognize the driver?

There isn't a SAS driver its a PERC driver.

Rename the exe file to .zip and extract the F6 drivers.

The drives do not work unless you have Pre formatted a container in the PERC bios.
