Unfortunately, HP considers the Netserver as "Retired" and says Windows 2003 is "not supported". But don't misunderstand, this does not mean that the computer doesn't support it, only that HP does not "support" it through testing and drive re-writes with their name on them. You may find that everything that requires a drive is supported by Windows out of the box. If you need something, try the 2000 drive for it, but for the E800, I don't think you will need anything. Do make sure you have the lasted BIOS and firmware's though: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?pnameOID=20916&locale=en_US&taskId=135&prodSeriesId=45939&prodTypeId=15351

Hi syed,

Windows 2003 should have all the drivers you wanted.HP does not have a driver for 2003 for this server
