Solve : Windows Server 2008 R2 Graphics card?

Answer» <html><body><p>I'm trying out windows server, want to see how it all works and get some experience. One thing I've noticed it's nothing like Windows 7, it does not automatically <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/install-2121155" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about INSTALL">INSTALL</a> everything and it doesn't seem to work with wireless. <br/><br/>Now I've got <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/pretty-2228622" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PRETTY">PRETTY</a> much everything working from hardware except the graphics card.<br/><br/>I have Radeon 4650 HD and it doesn't show that the system recognizes it when I do the dxdiag. It's a 64 bit system, so I've tried the 64 bit windows 7 drivers, and it seems that it doesn't work still, but it has installed it. <br/><br/>So, my question is, how do I get my graphics card to work on Windows Server 2008 R2?Have you tried drivers made for Server 2008 ? ?<br/>I believe thats what you will need to get the card working right.What is not working graphics wise?  If it is the lack of Aero - That has to be enabled first.<br/><br/>If you want it more like Windows 7 check out this site for more info <a href="http://www.win2008r2workstation.com/">http://www.win2008r2workstation.com/</a><br/><br/>However please note that enabling aero.etc will cause extra overhead.I know that some Vista drivers will work in Win7 and vice-versa...<br/><br/>However i do not think this applies to any Windows Server products...Server 2008 R2 works <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/really-1178981" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about REALLY">REALLY</a> well in a virtualized environment. Why not just install Windows 7 on your box and then host Server 08 in Hyper-V? Save yourself from the headache of incompatible drivers.
