Problems installing Windows SBS 2003 R2 with SP2

by juan.carlos . Updated 17 years, 4 months ago

Hi,

I tried to install the MS Windows SBS 2003 R2 HP Branded with its HP
Smartstart CD and it finished well. After this installation, the server starts correctly but needs to install server properties and programs, I continued the complete server installation using the rest of CDs.

When i did it, a message window displayed “Cannot install R2 in a system with SP2” due SP2 was installed by default because the CDs are SP2 included. I tried to install SP1 but cannot be installed over SP2 version, What can i do?.

I am looking for an updated information to how install a new server with SBS 2003 R2 (SP2 included). Unfortunatelly the information was found is obsolete, almost the OS was sold and installed last week.

Please, help.

Best regards.

Juan Carlos.
