Looking at all the unnecessary steps you took and the wrong order you made
your install, the root of your problem is simply that you have no idea of
how to install a Windows OS. Talk to somebody that knows first, THEN whine
about it.

If it was a Windows 2003 Server, the reboots should've been two. But you
already knew that, isn't it?

A word of advice: stick to Linux.
