Re: How to Determine if SBS 2003 Standard or Premium is Installed

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Just to clarify (for my own sanity)....
If the other vendor installed the Premium version that includes SQL
2000, then there is *no* SBS 2003 SP1 to install, correct?

SBS Premium comes with SBS2003 Standard Disc 1, 2 etc, plus 2
Premium Technologies CD (contains ISA2004 and SQL2005WG),
plus another CD for R2.

If you have SBS2003 Standard, you won't have the Premium CDs.
You would install SBS2003 Std, followed by SBS2003 sp1, then R2,
to get SBS2003 Standard R2.

Hope this answers your question.

Sorry, but I do not understand what you mean.
Are there not 2 distinct CDs labelled 'CD 1'?
a. SBS 2003 Standard R2 Disc 1
b. SBS 2003 Premium R2 Disc 1

And that's because SBS Premium is installed over SBS Standard.

Unfortunately there is no way to tell. That is why it is important to
keep
the CDs and all licensing documentation in a safe place for future
reference.
