RE: Windows 2003 R2 - Trial Copy and Volume Licensing

Hello,
You need an R2 Volume License product key to be able to do this.
The CD2 of R2 will not affect your Volume License Install, the catch is
that you have to wait until you get your R2 Volume License product keys.
Thanks,
Darrell Gorter[MSFT]
